Human Countdown in NYC: Time is Running Out
Young activists from around the world today kicked off Climate Week NYC with a choreographed human countdown demonstration during which they morphed from a globe to the sands of time running through a human hourglass. The dramatic human mobilization was designed to display in words and motion the urgency that young people feel about the threat of climate change, the need for action, and the opportunity to pursue an economic transformation that produces safety, opportunity, and prosperity. In the words of the organizers of the event, the time to act is running out. The human hourglass demonstration comes at the start of a week of civic and diplomatic action on climate change in New York and in Pittsburgh.
