Climate Changemakers Hour of Action

Join the Climate Changemakers Monday Hour of Action — the most productive hour of your week.
You’ll plug into a coordinated, nationwide grassroots effort in partnership with The Climate Reality Project!

Here’s how it works:

  • ​A 15-minute, jargon-free briefing

  • ​A roadmap with powerful, easy-to-use resources

  • ​Real advocacy, accomplished together — all within the hour

​No prep. No experience. Just show up (seriously, come unprepared!) and see what’s possible when organized advocates have each other’s backs.

Register Here

​​Register using the registration link and check your email or calendar invite for the Zoom link. This Zoom is a community space, so being here means agreeing to our community guidelines.

​PS: This takes all of us. Whether you’ve been advocating for years or this is your very first step off the sidelines, this space is for you. We meet every week — same time, same place — to turn our collective focus into timely, productive, move-the-needle climate action. See and RSVP to future Hours of Action.
