On September 20, 2019, a mass of people gathered outside of town hall in downtown Tampa for the worldwide climate strike. The Tampa Climate Action Rally was hosted by Our Climate and Florida Youth Climate Strike. People from all generations came together to show their support for working towards making our earth a cleaner and more sustainable planet.
