Carbon Pricing is a False Solution
Learn more below.
Fossil fuel pollution and climate disasters are already disrupting millions of lives. We deserve a world beyond fossil fuels: a world in which workers’ rights, community health, and our shared climate come before corporate profits.
That’s why frontline black, brown and indigenous leaders are calling us to action at the White House this October to demand President Biden pick a side: People vs fossil fuels.
We’re holding a huge kick-off call to share more about the action.
Can you join the call on Thursday, September 9, to learn more about People vs Fossil Fuels?
Authored by grassroots, veteran organizers, movement strategists and thought leaders from across our climate and environmental justice movements, the third edition of Hoodwinked in the Hothouse is an easy-to-read, concise-yet-comprehensive compendium of the false corporate promises that continue to hoodwink elected officials and the public, leading us down risky pathways poised to waste billions of public dollars on a host of corporate snake-oil schemes and market-based mechanisms. These false solutions distract from the real solutions that serve our most urgent needs in an alarming climate justice moment of no-turning-back. By uncovering the pitfalls and risky investments being advanced by disaster capitalists to serve the needs of the biggest polluters on the planet, Hoodwinked also provides a robust framework for understanding the depth of real solutions and how they should be determined. As a pop-ed toolbox, Hoodwinked promises to be instructive for activists, impacted communities and organizers, while providing elected officials with critical lenses to examine a complex, technocratic field of climate change policy strategies, from local to national and international arenas.
Carbon pricing schemes put a price on the air we breathe, violating Mother Earth and Father Sky.
COVID-19 Relief
Due to an overwhelming response, we are only able to fund a portion of the applications we receive. We are currently raising funds and can only distribute what we receive, and will continue to do so as resources become available. We will prioritize groups and organizations who are offering mutual aid as part of community organized efforts. Thank you!
This rapid response support will be extended to community-based Indigenous peoples and organizations from the U.S. and Canada. (Central and South America on a case-by-case basis.)
