Hamilton College (Clinton, NY)
The Hamilton CJF team is a group of students and professors from Hamilton College participating in a rolling fast to show their belief in and commitment to climate justice. In the midst of classes, essays, club commitments, and upcoming exams, strikers are forgoing food for a 24-hour period to challenge themselves and other students to think critically about climate change and social justice.
Each day until the end of the Copenhagen conference, two people are wearing black "Climate Justice Fast!" armbands to gain visibility, encourage curiousity, and spread awareness. The strikers hope their dedication makes a strong statement about the necessary attention climate justice demands and inspires others students to care about the issue as well.
