by Chris Schweitzer, New Haven Climate Movement

On Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2025, at 4 p.m. by the Amistad statue in front of City Hall, the New Haven Climate Movement project marked International Human Rights Day by unveiling three new climate justice banners and releasing the new Youth State of the Climate Report for New Haven.

The banners were painted by Yale student-led Project Bright Spaces, and show the impacts of climate injustice on Bangladesh, Sierra Leone, and Argentina.

The Youth State of the Climate Report for New Haven presents the climate dangers New Haven faces and the urgent need to act now to avoid creating climate chaos for future generations. See the Report and Banners at instagram.com/newhavenclimatemovemnent.
