(PHOTOS) Fall Campout in the Book Cliffs: “We rise up for Climate Justice!”

From Utah to NY: Together & Everywhere We Rise Up For Climate Justice!

Over the weekend of Sept. 19th, folks from all over Utah, Colorado, and even as far away as Brooklyn & England, gathered at our permanent protest camp to share stories of Resistance, and tour the East Tavaputs Plateau: specifically US Oil Sands’ tar sands strip-mine.

Our friends, along with Utah Tar Sands Resistance and Canyon Country Rising Tide, marched down Seep Ridge Road, along the football-sized area being clear-cut for US Oil Sands’ construction site, and into the 10-acre test pit that gives us a glimpse of the future if 32,000 acres are strip-mined in the Book Cliffs. We stand & resist in solidarity with communities everywhere rising up to protect lands, water & our very future.
