WHO WE ARE

We believe this moment requires transformative change.

The climate crisis is here. And Black, Indigenous and people of color have been bearing the burden of our pollution-based economy for generations. We have the solutions to stop climate change, but we lack the political will to do it at the rate and scale that's needed.

EnviroVoters is building the political power to solve the climate crisis, advance justice, and create a global roadmap for action. To protect our water, land, air, and our most vulnerable communities, we organize voters, elect and train candidates, and hold lawmakers accountable for bold policy change.

We won't stop until we have resilient, healthy, thriving communities, with a democracy and economy that are just and sustainable for all.
