The natural disasters we have seen just this summer, from the hurricanes ravaging the Gulf to the forest fires destroying the west coast, have made clear that we need bold action on climate now if we are going to have a habitable planet.
At a time when millions are suffering from the catastrophic impacts of COVID-19 and a society that has gutted the support systems keeping families afloat, this onslaught of natural disasters will leave many unable to recover.
The climate crisis is devastating, but it allows us an opportunity to build a more just society. The THRIVE Agenda builds a new economy to address the inequality and racism the COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare.
THRIVE creates millions of good, safe union jobs, repairs and revives our economy, and addresses the unemployment and underemployment crisis.
THRIVE invests in Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities who are at the forefront of the climate crises.
THRIVE invests in environmental justice and healthy lives, and averts climate catastrophe.
THRIVE protects workers & communities impacted by economic transitions to ensure we have a recovery that works for everyone.
Call Congress and demand they support the THRIVE Agenda to provide dignified work, healthy communities, a stable climate, and racial, economic, gender, and environmental justice.
