Massive NYC March Demands Biden to End Fossil Fuels, AOC Applauds Powerful Message

Tens of thousands of climate activists marched in New York City to demand an end to fossil fuels, with Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calling for a movement that is "too big and too radical to ignore." Ocasio-Cortez criticized the US for approving fossil fuel projects and urged global action to create urgency. Organizers estimated between 50,000 and 75,000 attendees, making it the largest climate protest in the US since the start of the pandemic. The march coincided with the UN General Assembly and a climate ambitions summit, where President Biden was not scheduled to participate, drawing criticism from activists.
