A Category 5 Atlantic Hurricane has torn through the Caribbean and is heading for Texas.1
As the climate crisis worsens, hurricane season will only become more disastrous.
Weather events like floods, fires, and droughts have become more extreme due to climate change, leading to social crises that disproportionately impact Black, brown, and Indigenous communities. Without our leaders in Congress prioritizing a federal Green New Deal, these underfunded cities can't make the necessary investments in frontline communities to protect or repair from the devastating harm of extreme weather events.
Lives and entire communities are at risk. We need to pass a Green New Deal to invest in updating our buildings, homes, transportation, and state infrastructure to withstand rising temperatures, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and more. Our window to take meaningful, tangible action to tackle the climate crisis head-on is closing.
Our network is continuously working to amplify calls to action for Congress to take the climate crisis with the seriousness it deserves. Will you support our efforts to create more investments for climate, justice, jobs, and clean energy by making a contribution toward our network? Every donation allows us to expand on our outreach strategies to get one step closer to a Green New Deal.
In solidarity,
Green New Deal Network
