Musicians Rising for Climate Justice is a series of shows to support the climate justice organization, MN350. MN350 unites Minnesotans as part of a global movement to end the pollution damaging our climate, speed the transition to clean energy, and create a just and healthy future for all.

"We seek to transition from an extractive economy based on fossil fuels and consumption to a sustainable, life-affirming economy with energy from the wind and sun. We insist leaders act boldly to expedite that transition. We work to guarantee that benefits flow first to marginalized communities that are historically excluded from economic gain. We seek to build sustainable energy, transportation and food systems that protect our health and the health of our communities."

Learn more about MN350 here: https://mn350.org/

We urge the new Walz administration to support strong automotive standards for healthier, cleaner cars in Minnesota. Now is the time to make your voice heard.
