Climate protesters took to the streets in more than 50 countries in September 2023, demanding that world leaders phase out fossil fuels. Pictured is protest in Germany from this time. As Al Gore describes it, “Here's what is most needed, and that is a much larger uprising at the grassroots level, like the one here in this city last weekend where far more people than were expected (75,000 people) in the streets of Manhattan.” Protests like these are needed to convince policymakers that change is imperative.
