I hope you're ready for some feel-good moments, John!
Thanks to the support of people like you, our climate movement has organized game-changing climate events this year.
People all over the world came together for climate events — from local community centers, church basements, or their local restaurants — to protect our planet.
If you weren't able to make it to these events, here are some of the highlights from around the world — and if you have one more minute, please vote below and tell us your favorite event from 2023!
Climate Justice Squad
This year, 350.org with Together for Future launched The Climate Justice Squad. In partnership with Mitzi Jonelle Tan, one of our long-time collaborators, The Squad was set up to help young climate activists worldwide in finding their feet by giving them mentorship, training, financial support, and opportunities to collaborate on a global scale. With your help, we've kick-started the journeys of 40 young leaders, prioritizing activists from marginalized groups from the Global South.
NYC Climate March
On September 17th, over 75,000 climate activists joined the March to End Fossil Fuels, the largest climate demonstration in the US since the start of the pandemic. Demonstrators put pressure on the Biden administration to end new fossil fuel projects such as Alaska’s controversial and newly approved Willow project.
Asia Solidarity Lab
This year, we launched The Asia Solidarity Lab, a dynamic platform that brings together amazing activists, thinkers, and artists from across Asia to address critical social and political issues. With a commitment to social justice, the Lab provides a space for meaningful dialogue, collaboration, and creativity.
Climate Justice Camp
In Lebanon, 350.org led the Climate Solutions track at the Climate Justice Camp 2023, working alongside our partners at Greenpeace. We empowered 450 young leaders from nearly 100 countries, emphasizing the need for renewable energy justice and reclaiming our energy systems.
Please take a quick moment to vote on your favorite climate event from 2023.

With so much at stake, we have been skilling up a new generation of activists from around the world to help tackle the climate crisis.
If we are going to phase out fossil fuels and rapidly transition to 100% renewable energy, we need activists, organizers, and campaigners from every corner of the world to pressure leaders to accept our demands. John, can you donate $3.50 today so we can train more activists for the climate movement next year?
