# We sent a message to Paris:

### 2300+ Events 175+ Countries 785,000+ People 



**On November 28-29th, on the eve of the Paris Climate Summit, hundreds of thousands of people around the world took to the streets.**

The **Global Climate March** was coordinated by a huge coalition of climate groups and activists working together — to show world leaders and delegates in Paris that the world is paying attention and the people are rising up.

We demand a climate treaty that’s in line with the realities of science and the principles of justice. This was our message: **Keep fossil fuels in the ground and finance a just transition to 100% renewable energy by 2050.**
