Workshop: B061 End fossil fuels: Occupy!

How the youth within the Climate Justice Movement will occupy schools in 2022 to end the use of fossil fuels

Students are striking. Institutions are failing. The fossil fuel industry is growing. That’s why between October and December 2022 the youth within the international climate justice movement will occupy hundreds of schools and universities to demand the end of the fossil fuel era.

In this session we’ll present the concept of “End Fossil Fuel – Occupy!”: What is it? What are the demands? What are the principles? Why occupy schools and universities? Who can join us?

We’ll open the conversation with participants to brainstorm the potentialities of this international action and how we can create great momentum for the climate justice movement.

We want to invite everyone to show them how they can get involved and set up their own “End Fossil Fuel: Occupy!” action in their own context.

We need to dismantle the fossil fuel industry as a pillar of fossil fuel capitalism, and we need to do so as a mass popular movement. The youth have the power to end fossil, and the climate justice movement has the power to change the system.
