Activism

The San Diego Climate Action Network is a non-profit organization focused on strengthening and accelerating climate advocacy in San Diego County, California.

Our non-partisan network facilitates resource sharing, focusing on coalition building and public relations, in order to amplify the efforts of our member organizations.

Recognizing each San Diego climate advocacy group’s unique contributions, we seek to discover ideal working practices between groups, as well as any vital solutions that may be currently unfulfilled by existing efforts.

Poder (People Organizing in Defense of the Earth and her Resources) brings East Texas communities of color together for decision-making and influence on pollution issues and economic development in our neighborhoods.

~ WHY PODER ~

As we look into our own backyard, we see a power plant, fuel storage tank farms, refineries, lumber companies, and most recently, high tech industries which emit their pollutants into the air we breath and the water we drink. That's why we're uniting to stand up for justice, our health, and our environment.

During the spring and summer months, The Boston Harbor Association’s Emerging Professionals Committee organizes several volunteer cleanup days along the Boston HarborWalk from Winthrop to Dorchester. Please join in!

In addition, it's easy and very satisfying to organize your own cleanup event with your friends, school, work or religious community! Feel free to contact us to get ideas on where to go and who to contact. We are also happy to help promote your HarborWalk event to help you get more volunteers there.
