People-powered climate action starts here
Our mission is to build and connect networks of empowered individuals in communities across Canada by equipping them with the tools and knowledge to bring about new behaviours and policies that lead to a low-carbon, resilient, and just future.
Dear mayors, bring cheap, clean energy to your community.
Clean energy is cheap energy, giving us an effective way to cut both costs and climate pollution in our towns and cities.
Our mayors and city leaders are well-positioned to help bring cheap clean energy to our communities, but they need to hear from us: Sign our petition calling for mayors and city leaders to push for clean cheap energy now.
MEET "GROWING PAPAYA TREES" AUTHOR, DR. JESSICA HERNANDEZ
Join the Green Ink Book Club for a conversation with Dr. Jessica Hernandez on “Growing Papaya Trees: Nurturing Indigenous Roots During Climate Displacement”!
In her highly anticipated follow-up to “Fresh Banana Leaves,” Dr. Hernandez weaves together Indigenous knowledge, environmental science, and family stories to explore the colonial roots of climate catastrophe – and offers an Indigenous, Global South vision for restoration and resilience.

LEARN ABOUT CLIMATE-FOCUSED DEMOCRATIC INNOVATION
Our new report, Advancing Climate Action through Participatory Democracy: Innovative Approaches for Public Engagement at the Local Level, explores how municipalities are using innovative approaches to bring residents into the policy process. Co-developed with Simon Fraser University’s CERi, this report is a valuable resource for municipal leaders, civil society groups and advocates working to strengthen democratic participation at the local level.
Change starts in our communities. Discover powerful stories of local advocates driving climate action, social justice, and sustainability from the ground up. Be inspired—one story at a time.
