Climate Workers

Share this:

Through multilingual popular education, we connect the lived experiences of thousands of union members with the roots, scale, and urgency of the climate crisis. Workers engage in hands-on projects to foster climate resilience; mobilize their local and national unions to take bold, public stands against dirty energy; and lead campaigns for a just transition away from extreme energy and toward good jobs in industries that heal the planet. By harnessing the power of workers and unions, we’re creating a new economy based on economic democracy and ecological restoration.
