Issue: Principles & Processes

In Cleveland, OH, the nonprofit Cleveland Owns is incubating the state's first community-owned solar developer, Cleveland Solar Cooperative, which was the subject of a recent case study funded by the Climate Advocacy Lab. On this webinar, you'll hear from the organizers who are running this experiment in Energy Democracy in Cleveland.

Join us for the first part of our Ohio-specific series, Political Education. This training will delve into the root causes of the climate crisis, explore concepts such as colonialism, capitalism, white supremacy, and discuss the ways that environmental racism impacts marginalized communities. Participants will leave with a deeper political analysis and understanding of climate justice and the ideologies upholding the fossil fuel industry.

This Insight explores the linkages between environmental injustice, policing, and prisons. By now, many folks in our movement are familiar with the pitfalls of the current policing and prison systems, but how do we, as climate activists, understand the call for police reform, or even abolition, within our own work?
