Climate Protesters Pledge To Risk Arrest During Wall Street Sit-in

Hundreds of protesters plan to risk arrest on Monday during an unsanctioned blockade in New York City's financial district to call attention to what organizers say is Wall Street's contribution to climate change. The Flood Wall Street demonstration comes on the heels of Sunday's international day of action that brought some 310,000 people to the streets of New York City in the largest single protest ever held on over climate change. Police said, that there were no arrests or incidents in Sunday's massive march. Flood Wall Street organizers said they wanted to use the momentum gained by Sunday's march to "highlight the role of capitalism in fueling the climate crisis." http://bit.ly/XN2p3y http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ
