What: Kick-Off Call: People vs. Fossil Fuels When: Thursday, September 9, 7 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. CT Where: Online, via Zoom (RSVP to receive the link)
The time for incremental action is over. It’s not enough to stop one pipeline — President Biden needs to stop all fossil fuel projects. That’s why we’re working with a broad coalition of Indigenous and community leaders fighting fracking, pipelines, exports and refineries. Here’s an excerpt from their call to action:
“If you have ever marched, rallied, called your representatives, lobbied, signed petitions to urge government leaders to act — we call on you to take the next step. Nonviolent civil disobedience is a time-tested tactic for change. If we all come together, put our bodies on the line in the name of climate justice, we may be able to change the course of history.”
Food & Water Watch and its affiliated organization, Food & Water Action, are advocacy groups with a common mission to protect our food, water and climate.
