Climate Action NOW

When are we going to get serious about climate action? 

When are we going to prioritize our own climate action plan?

When are we going to just say no to "transportation" plans that totally fail to consider the global heating consequences of increasing automobile traffic? 

When are we going to stop chopping down healthy, mature trees and demolishing refurbishable buildings and pouring more concrete and permitting more sprawl and drive-throughs?

When are we going to push our institutions, schools, and businesses to transition to plant-based meals?

When are we going to wake up to the horrors we are baking into our near future through lack of meaningful action?




Tuesday, November 10
Time: 7:00–8:00 p.m. 

After a record-breaking and deadly heat season, scientists are warning that the Super El Niño is already amplifying extreme heat and other climate impacts; this will continue in 2027, when the new Congress will be seated. Join Union of Concerned Scientist experts for an engaging discussion on the latest science, what these forecasts could mean for communities across the country, and why strong congressional action is needed to help people prepare for and withstand growing climate risks. 

As communities are witnessing impacts from El Niño and climate change-fueled impacts, FEMA is implementing a policy to reduce federal disaster assistance which will impact state, local, tribal and territorial (SLTTs) governments' ability to help their communities. This is a continuation of the Trump administration's cruel policy to put more of the disaster response and recovery burden on to state and local governments. Here's what this means to communities already impacted by disasters and moving forward. 

You'll also learn how volunteers can make a difference by helping to hold Congress accountable and advocating for policies that protect communities from the increasing dangers of climate change.
