Floods, typhoons and droughts are already impacting many millions of people around the world - this humanitarian crisis most affects those who have done least to create the problem.
Real solutions exist: public renewable energy, green infrastructure and millions of new, unionised clean jobs – we need this to happen faster, at scale, and with people at its centre, so we can leave the age of fossil fuels behind. 

 Hope is with the people who are already way ahead of governments and corporate interests. We want our leaders to know that we want real action from the Paris climate talks, and we can and we will build the future from here – a more just, more equitable and better world for us all.

Join us to say No to dirty energy... Yes to renewables... Climate jobs now... Justice for people!
