We are launching a movement to survive climate impacts, heal together, and rise up against fossil fuels.

Our world is on fire.
At 1.2ºC of planetary heating, climate devastation and extreme weather are already an existential threat to communities and ecosystems across the planet.
The time for incremental change is over. We need visionary learning spaces, community plans to thrive despite disaster, and people-powered resistance to create an emergency phase out of fossil fuels from below.
We need a movement for climate survival.
