Earlier in October the County Board of Supervisors issued a proclamation:
“BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Supervisors of the County of Santa Clara does hereby recognize and commend the Silicon Valley Youth Climate Strike Organizers for bringing together thousands of climate protesters through a march from Diridon Station to San José City Hall and a rally at the San José City Hall steps to signify a powerful new wave of the climate justice movement.”
Two of the Climate Strike Organizers are Mountain View residents: Jamie Minden and Lexie Crilley. Jamie attends St. Francis High School and Lexie attends Los Altos High School. Carbon Free Mountain View congratulates these two young climate champions.
