Young people and communities of color are fighting back against dirty energy companies to determine the outcome of the November California election. Over 100,000 Californian’s across the state will be joining the effort by pledging to vote and utilizing smart phones and text messaging to activate and educate their communities. The Clean Energy Tour is sponsored by the California Students Sustainability Coalition (CSSC) and Communities United Against Prop 23, a coalition of over 80 social justice and community based organizations uniting to stop the Dirty Energy Proposition.
The six city solar powered concert tour is the largest viral voter mobilization campaign for California’s critical election and unites communities of color and students across the higher education system. The tour launched on 10/10/10 at Laney College in Oakland in partnership with 350.org’s Global Work Party, the biggest-ever day of positive action on climate change.
Young people have the power to change this country and this November we will. The Clean Energy Tour will mobilize these constituencies to clean up politics and demand that our elected officials follow our leadership in creating a clean and just energy economy and millions of jobs.
