We are living in a climate emergency. We have less than 11 years to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions before damage to our climate becomes irreversible. We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to transition our nation to 100% clean energy while creating good jobs that can support a family. We’re fighting to keep fossil fuels in the ground by stopping politicians from issuing new permits for pipelines. We’re calling for the creation of a clean energy economy powered by solar, wind, and other renewable sources.
