climate march

Activist atmospheric demonstration

A climate march is an organized protest in which participants walk through public spaces to demand action on climate change.

These demonstrations typically call for government policies to reduce carbon emissions or transition to renewable energy.

Thousands joined the climate march ahead of the UN summit.

The term gained currency in the 2010s as environmental activism intensified.
