Late Friday night we wrapped up the amazing Spark Joy(e), Extinguish Fossil Fuels day of action. If you missed the earlier posts and emails, this was to honor Joye Braun, a true warrior for climate justice and a force of nature who died late last year. In her honor, hundreds of people rallied in dozens of cities on January 20th, 2023 to push President Biden to take bold climate action.

I was in DC, where we hung posters all around the White House, Department of Interior, and Bureau of Indian Affairs – all of whom Joye had a long and storied history of fighting. Check out the report with links to tons more photos, videos, and social media online.

There's more in the blog and footnotes. Make sure to visit the social media links for #JoyeBraunDay and #PeoplevsFossilFuels to see more actions from all over the country. And in case you missed it earlier, click here to see the recap of our Thursday action at FERC, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

Thanks,

PS — Before you go, one other request. This was day one of a two day action in DC, and it's a good example of the kind of digital support for direct action climate campaigns we provide. Read more about why and how we support digital direct action here, and chip in to support us if you're able.
