100 Grannies for a Liveable Future

100grannies.org

This is an invitation to all the grandmothers of the world to join in promoting solutions to end activities destructive to Mother Earth. Here’s Why: Since the furnaces of the industrial revolution were ignited in the late 18th century, we have dumped more than a trillion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. In May 2010 the US National Academies of Science reported that “Climate change is occurring, is caused largely by human activities, and possess significant risks for… a broad range of human and natural systems.”  This is a bleak endowment, indeed, to future generations – our children and grandchildren. And their children and grandchildren.

350.org

350.org

The number 350 means climate safety: to preserve a livable planet, scientists tell us we must reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere from its current level of 400 parts per million to below 350 ppm. We believe that a global grassroots movement can hold our leaders accountable to the realities of science and the principles of justice. That movement is rising from the bottom up all over the world, and is uniting to create the solutions that will ensure a better future for all.

350MoCo.org

350MoCo.org

350MoCo. Montgomery County, MD What we’re about – the basics of MoCo divestment 350.org has launched a nationwide fossil fuel divestment campaign – based on the successful divestment campaign that helped end apartheid in South Africa. The fossil fuel divestment campaign is active on over 300 college campuses, in over 100 cities – and here in Montgomery County.

Beyond Extreme Energy

 Beyond Extreme Energy

Beyond Extreme Energy is an activist network of organizations and individuals that came together in the summer of 2014 to organize a successful, week-long nonviolent direct action campaign in Washington DC from November 1-7. We focused our actions that week on FERC, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, but we also took action elsewhere, particularly in Lusby, Maryland, near the proposed Cove Point Liquified Natural Gas export terminal site. We took action to raise public awareness of the disastrous impacts of fracking, proposed gas exports and other extreme energy extraction practices.

Citizens Climate Lobby Contra Costa Chapter

Citizens Climate Lobby Contra Costa Chapter

Citizens’ Climate Lobby is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, grassroots advocacy organization empowering people to experience breakthroughs exercising their personal and political power. Our chapter is just one of hundreds of chapters across the world working to create the political will for a livable world. We are laser focused on a specific piece of legislation and a proven strategy to gain its passage. We are working for the passage of Carbon Fee and Dividend, the climate change solution economists and climate scientists alike say is the “best first-step” to preventing the worst impacts of a warming world. Our market-based Carbon Fee and Dividend policy will drastically reduce emissions, create jobs, and support small businesses and families — all without growing government. We’ve seen firsthand how passionate citizens who are well-trained, organized by district and with a good system of support can more than influence the political process.

Citizens’ Climate Lobby

Citizens’ Climate Lobby

Citizens’ Climate Lobby is a non-profit, non-partisan, grassroots advocacy organization focused on national policies to address climate change. We lobby in support of our Carbon Fee and Dividend proposal by friendly relationships with our federally elected representatives, with respect, appreciation and gratitude for their service. We write letters to the editor and op-eds, and meet with editorial boards to gain their editorial endorsement. We facilitate presentations and table at events to promote CCL and introduce others to our Carbon Fee and Dividend proposal. Based on what climate scientists and economist tell us, we believe that Carbon Fee and Dividend is the best first step to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to mitigate the impacts of a changing climate.

Pass It On Network

Pass It On Network

Many factors make it vital that we invent how to live this new phase of life beginning at age 50+. So rich in promises and challenges, the second half of life calls for us to be bold, imaginative and caring and to realize that “We are the ones“ who need to self organize and help ourselves, others and our communities. The statistics are clear: Never in the history of mankind have there been so many 60+ year-old citizens worldwide. We are the only growing age group. Our sheer numbers along with economic turmoil and budget shortfalls make it impossible for nations to scale up existing facilities and services to meet our demands. We need to be very aware that we have to fend for ourselves. We believe the work of elders is to “pass it on”, to share our know-how with others, to capitalize on what works, to save money and to shape new expectations for lifelong working, learning and sharing.
