Don’t forget Rising Tide! We’re the only grassroots direct action network solely focused on climate / energy issues, and have played a lead role in a lot of the direct actions against dirty energy these past couple years, including day long blockades of coal fired power plants and a lot of the organizational work behind fossil fools day.

With local contacts in about 30 cities, we’re a great resource for folks interested in direct action against the climate crisis.

Plus we’re non-heirarchically organized, so you can plug in and start a local group based on whatever fits your local needs.
