Overview

• Protesters moved down Park Avenue through Billionaires’ Row and toward Trump Tower under the “Make Billionaires Pay” banner.
• Organizers linked climate demands to democracy, free speech, gender equality, immigration policy and a ceasefire in Gaza.
• The Associated Press described the crowd stretching more than four city blocks, and Newsweek reported thousands in attendance.
• Demonstrators carried giant papier-mache effigies of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg and unfurled a 160-foot “climate polluters bill.”
• The march was part of a coordinated global wave aligned with the UN General Assembly as Climate Week events run September 21–28 across New York City.
