Climate Change & Our Children’s right to “life, liberty and property.”
Celebrate 10 Years of Our Children’s Trust
Hi everyone,
Thank you so much to the many people who joined me, Professor Mary Wood, youth plaintiff Xiuhtezcatl Martinez, and our Deputy Director, Lou Helmuth, during today’s 10th anniversary online event. We were honored and delighted to spend this hour with you!
We know that some of you had trouble joining us today, while others may have wanted to tune in but had scheduling conflicts. Fortunately, if you weren’t able to join us live, we have a recording available so that you can watch the event at your convenience: https://bit.ly/OCT10video!
Please feel free to share this video on social media and with others who may want to learn more about Our Children’s Trust. We received wonderful positive feedback on today’s event – one attendee wrote, “I’m re-inspired by all of you. And this was the finest organized and presented webinar I’ve seen – thanks!” – and we’d love your help sharing the recording of today’s event with anyone who might be interested in hearing about how Our Children’s Trust started, the many legal actions we’ve spearheaded over the past decade, how legal scholars like Professor Wood and youth plaintiffs like Xiuhtezcatl Martinez reflect on our actions and achievements, and where we are today with our active youth-led climate litigation in courts around the world.
You may also recall that we launched a $50,000 10th Anniversary matching challenge on July 10th to help advance our climate litigation efforts on behalf of youth. That matching challenge was expanded by a second donor to a total of $60,000, and we have $22,000 more to go to meet the full $60,000 match. If you can help us meet that goal with a gift today, please click here! Thank you all for your incredibly generous support!
Again, thank you for joining us today and for being an invaluable member of our global community,
Julia Olson
Executive Director & Chief Legal Counsel
