Climate Leadership Summit
October 25, 2014 @ 1:00 pm - 6:00 pm
The fossil fuel industry and their political allies are pushing us towards climate catastrophe, but a mass social movement can still change the course of history and chart a new direction toward a just and stable future.
However, with most of our attention focused on fighting short-term battles, we often forget to ask the question: What would the world look like if we won?
Change the Course is an invitation to dig deep and think hard about what it would actually take to stabilize the climate and create a just transition to a post-carbon future.
When: Saturday, October 25, 1-6 p.m. and
Sunday, October 26, 1-6 p.m.
We are launching a series of climate-focused workshops and visioning sessions — in cities across the country. There’s a summit happening close to you, and we’d love for you to join us there. These two-day climate leadership summits will be a rare opportunity to participate in something big. Through this program, we will crowd-source a detailed vision of what a sustainable and just future would look like — and develop the strategies and tactics that will get us there.
Our opponents in the fossil fuel industry have their own vision for the future, one defined by rising oceans and ever-increasing carbon emissions — a future where extreme energy practices fly in the face of science and common-sense, and where the worst impacts of climate change are shouldered by the communities least able to bear them.
It’s not too late to define the future we want to live in.
RSVP here for the summit in Denver on October 25 and 26.
Together, let’s change the course.
For the climate,
