Stand in solidarity with communities in Latin America who are fighting back against the fossil fuel industry:
John -
Many communities across the Amazon in Latin America are experiencing extreme energy scarcity.
They lack reliable electricity to heat water and cool their homes, pump clean water to their communities, and store life-saving medications in refrigerators.
And the unreliable energy that they can access comes from a system designed to prioritize fossil fuel companies and multi-millionaires, and not the communities and the planet. Enough is enough.
The devastation caused by the fossil fuel industry in Latin America is a reality faced by communities all over the Global South.
Just last month you heard from fellow climate activists in Africa who are facing extreme energy scarcity and whose communities are being destroyed by fossil fuel exploration.
This is a global crisis that requires a global solution.
That is why activists all over the world — from Latin America to Africa — are standing up to the fossil fuel industry by mobilizing communities and leaders to create their own sources of energy and take their future — and their power — into their own hands.
Thank you for standing in solidarity with the climate activists who are helping build a brighter future for all.
In solidarity,
