Almost every time people, often still stunned by what has just happened to them, are interviewed after the latest #climatechange amplified disaster, they say the same thing: 'Shocking. I've never seen anything like it.' In a #ClimateEmergency we need a WWII style mobilisation
Formed in 2015, The Climate Mobilzation mission is to
initiate a WWII-scale mobilisation to reverse global warming and the mass extinction of species in order to protect humanity and the natural world from climate catastrophe.

They are an innovation lab that develops and launches policy frameworks, messaging, and organizing approaches to accelerate the global transition into “Emergency Mode” to address the climate emergency.

Based in the US, but relevant across the world, their core demands are:
A declaration of a national Climate Emergency

A decade or shorter mobilization to zero greenhouse gas emissions for the entire economy (including electricity, transportation, industry, buildings, agriculture, and waste)
The mobilization to safe-climate economy must be a democratic, equitable and just transition for workers and frontline communities.

Setting a goal of rapidly restoring a safe climate, meaning returning global average temperatures to 0°C warming above pre-industrial levels asap
Implementing a massive, safe, and ecologically beneficial “drawdown” effort to remove all the excess warming gases from the atmosphere
The use of World War II–type policy instruments to transform the economy on an emergency basis, including a substantially increased federal government role in planning and steering industrial investment, providing jobs, allocating energy and materials, and managing demand
Parallel efforts to rapidly address the broader ecological crisis caused by the global economy’s overshoot of environmental limits
