[ Ссылка ] - As many as 400,000 people turned out in New York City on Sunday for the People's Climate March, the largest environmental protest in history. With a turnout far exceeding expectations, the streets of midtown Manhattan were filled with environmentalists, politicians, musicians, students, farmers, celebrities, nurses and labor activists -- all united in their demand for urgent action on climate change. Organizers arranged the People's Climate March into different contingents reflecting the movement's diversity, with indigenous groups in the lead. Democracy Now! producer Aaron Maté was in the streets to hear from some of the demonstrators taking part in the historic protest.
