The People’s Climate Movement (PCM) was formed out of the 2014 People’s Climate March when 400,000 participants marched with Bill McKibben and 350.0rg. PCM calls for bold action on climate at the local, national and global levels. PCM addresses not only environmental issues, but also social and economic justice issues. People who are more vulnerable may feel the effects of climate disruption the most. Local events are being organized across the country on October 14 as part of PCM’s National Day of Action.
