At a time when the risk of inaction on climate change is growing, fed by influential climate skeptics in the Trump administration, it is critical that the climate justice movement reject a militarized and violent response to climate change.

Today we’re launching #SolarXL – a campaign to not only stop Keystone XL, but build clean energy solutions directly in its path as part of our resistance.

The Stepping Up podcast is launching. These are stories of climate advocates who are stepping up their game in unexpected ways. Grannies and kids, evangelicals and clowns, they will amuse you and inspire you, as they figure out new ways to act – and act out – about the biggest crisis of our times.

I spent six days along the route of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, meeting with various leaders and people who’d be directly impacted by the project. Here’s the top three reflections I came away with from my visit.

We need more than pledges to "live up to the Paris accords" from local politicians. We’ll need your help as we work hard on all these battles in the months ahead.

Lessons from Local Leaders - School board members can be persuaded to vote “yes” for solar on schools, based on the experience of Arlington 350, in Virginia. Other local 350 groups may also find success with a solar-on-schools campaign, helped by low prices for installed commercial solar.

In a series of three webinars co-hosted by 350.org and the Labor Network for Sustainability, we explored ideas and strategies from the new book, Against Doom: A Climate Insurgency Manual.

People across the world have met Trump's decision to pull out of the Paris Agreement with massive response and huge moral outcry. Thanks to each and every one of you who've been part of the groundswell for climate action.

It isn’t enough that in Trump’s first six months in office he has rolled back environmental protections and upended climate progress, or attempted to put in place a Muslim ban and give immigration enforcement agents free reign to deport and detain immigrants -- now he’s suggesting putting solar panels on his heinous border wall as a means to pay for it?
