Ending the climate crisis
We’re in a climate emergency and the oil, gas, and coal industry is to blame.
Our climate is in crisis
Scientists are shouting an urgent warning: We have little more than a decade to take bold, ambitious action to transition our economy off of coal, oil, and gas, and onto safe and green renewable energy. Shifting to cleaner, locally-run energy will not only slow the tide of the climate crisis, it’ll create millions of new jobs that sustain families while protecting community health.
For the last decade, many elected leaders and corporations have claimed to care about our future, but have done little more than say they believe climate change is real. Those talking points don’t cut it anymore.
It’s time to put people above the fossil fuel industry and truly act on climate.
The time is now
With enough pressure, we can push leaders to start responsibly phasing out coal, oil, and gas while prioritizing support for disadvantaged communities and workers most affected by moving to a safer, more caring economy. Together we can also make sure that communities impacted by extreme climate impacts will have everything they need to recover in a way that supports sustainable and livable communities, and holds fossil fuel executives accountable. True climate action also means that giant multinational corporations like Amazon need to invest in locally-run renewable energy to power their operations instead of dirty, dangerous energy production.
We deserve a world where everyone can thrive without worrying about their health, finances, or pollution.
