Fossil fuel companies, powerful political figures like Putin and Trump, and the billionaire elite are using social media to push their own agendas, with support from alt-right groups that threaten the hard-won human rights and stability we’ve built. Their tactics are simple: fear, lies, and control. And now, Trump is even threatening Canada.
But we don’t have time for complaints — we are stronger than those who seek to undermine our fundamental rights, and we have a brighter, more inclusive future in mind.
Please start organizing now and know that Hope will win the day. Our vision is one of positive freedom. This isn’t a battle of “us versus them.” It’s about all of us working together in cooperation. It’s not a zero-sum game of restriction, but a movement toward collective liberation. By standing united, we can overcome the tyranny knocking at our door.
The antidote for climate grief, climate anxiety, climate despair is action.

"The question is not 'can you make a difference?' You already do make a difference. It's just a matter of what kind of difference you want to make, during your life on this planet. " — Julia Butterfly Hill
Climate Change & Environmental Organizations
“Global warming, and its fix — decarbonization — touches almost every corner of what we do, and the risks to the economy are enormous, starting now. At stake are our profits, our businesses, our very quality of life.” — Heather Scoffield
Greta Thunberg — “How dare you?“ 5 minute speech to UN:

Greta Thunberg — TED Talk:
“Our house is on fire. I am here to say, our house is on fire. [...] I want you to act as if our house is on fire. Because it is.” — Greta Thunberg
“If government won’t do what’s necessary to safeguard our future, then we must. It is down to all of us this year to act.” — Extinction Rebellion
“As this hottest-on-record, godforsaken decade draws to a close, it’s clear that global warming is no longer a problem for future generations but one that’s already displacing communities, costing billions, and driving mass extinctions. And it’s worth asking: Where did the past 10 years get us?” — Grist.org
“Omnicide, the gravest of all crimes. And as with all crimes, those responsible must be held accountable.” — Danielle Celermajer
“When you give in to helplessness, you collude with despair and add to it.” — John O'Donohue
“The climate crisis threatens everything we love. The world is melting, flooding, burning before our eyes. But it's also an opportunity for enormous positive change. We need to rethink our priorities as if our lives really matter. No one person can "do it all" — but most of us can do much more than we're already doing. Dedicating ourselves is the only option.” — Wilfrid Bricker
"We are the ancestors of the future. What do you want your legacy to be?" — Julia Butterfly Hill
