Our climate is in crisis.
We need a democracy strong enough to fix it.
The climate movement has a democracy problem.
Two-thirds of Americans think the federal government should do more to tackle climate change. Yet as greenhouse gas emissions rise, the same democratic institutions that are failing to drive the necessary action to prevent dangerous levels of global warming are now actively under threat.
The future of our planet depends on the ability of our governments to respond effectively to the climate emergency. We need a new vision of democratic decision-making — one that centers ordinary people’s voices in the fight against climate change.
