About
Climate Action Guide

Mission

The majority of Americans are concerned or alarmed about climate change, and yet, only a tiny fraction are actively involved with advocating for the changes in policy needed to address the climate crisis.

Meanwhile, vested interests spend countless millions of dollars on professional lobbyists, financing our elected official's campaigns and their own public disinformation campaigns. And they are relentless. In order to counter their influence, a much higher percentage of our fellow citizens need to become climate advocates.

Our orange climate change action figure celebrates that concerns for the earth outweigh the fossil fuel industry's concerns as represented by a scale tipping towards the earth

Climate Action Guide help's climate concerned citizens find the organizations and the resources they need to join the effort to rein in greenhouse gas emissions in time to save humanity from the worst effects of climate change.

Vision

Every American who is concerned or alarmed about climate change becomes a climate advocate and stays in the fight through the inevitable ups and downs of advocating for a livable planet.

Our orange climate change action figure is on the bottom of a stack of people holding up a sign that reads "Everyone Gets Involved!". This illustrates organization's mission to get as many people as possible involved in action on climate change
