In March 2022, Adam McKay, director of “Don’t Look Up,” and actress Meryl Streep joined an indigenous and youth-led coalition at Pershing Square at noon Friday in downtown Los Angeles to support the Youth Climate Strike Los Angeles. The Youth Climate Los Angeles movement has targeted the California Teachers Union to divest their $20 billion pension fund from fossil fuels and will rally on March 25, the same day the CTA is supposed to be voting on their pension fund. It will also show support for the Wet’suwet’en tribe, whose territory and water supply is being threatened by the CGL pipeline. McKay said he will announce at today’s rally that his company will divest their money from City National Bank/Royal Bank of Canada if the bank does not meet the demands of the Wet’suwet’en tribe. The rally is expected to start at 12:30 p.m. and a march will follow to City National Bank, 350 S. Grand Ave, Los Angeles. The rally will start at Pershing Square, 532 S. Olive St., Los Angeles.
On the day of the alliance’s announcement, there was a live stream event on Act.tv that featured Mark Ruffalo, Bill McKibben, Danny Glover and hosted by Baratunde Thurston.
