About this event

Recess is over. It's time we schooled our leaders on climate.

Sophia, Zoe, Shaelyn, Shelby, Alex, Madison, and Beze — represented by Ecojustice lawyers — are going to the Ontario Superior Court on September 12–14. This case is a Canadian first and we want them to head into proceedings with your support ringing in their ears.

They're suing the Ontario government because its weakened climate target violates the constitutional right to life, liberty, and security of every person in Ontario.

You can read about their journey to the full hearing here.

More than 14,000 people have already signaled they believe this case is in the public interest.

Because while those in power behave like children, young people around the world are stepping into their power. This is their moment.

Will you stand up and show Sophia, Zoe, Shaelyn, Shelby, Alex, Madison, and Beze that you have their backs?

Come be a part of #GenClimateAction.
