Description
I joined Peaceful Uprising because our global society is about to face a challenge like none it has ever dealt with before; and we are far too interconnected for any part of society to be immune to the effects of climate change. My friend and fellow activist, Tim Dechristopher, recognized this in an all-too-realistic way, and realized he had to do everything in his power to prevent that vision of our future. I work for many other social justice causes like LGBTQ rights and immigration issues, but climate justice is the single umbrella issue that will inevitably affect all of us.
