We are young people and we’ve only ever known crisis. We’ve grown up in austerity and come of age in a pandemic, all while sailing past climate tipping points. Watching as storms and wildfires fill our phone screens, and then our streets. Our classrooms are overcrowded and our libraries have closed down. Our energy bills are unaffordable. Half our paychecks go on renting flats from landlords who don’t care if our ceilings rot from mould. Meanwhile, the billionaires and fossil fuel CEOs profiting from these crises have gotten richer and richer. And our political leaders have done nothing to stop it.
The green new deal is a ten year, game - changing plan to stop climate change and build a world in which we can thrive.
We are at a decisive moment in our history. We’ve been following one way for decades, guided by rules written by people who do not have our interests at heart. But now we are rising up to win a world where we protect and build the things people really care about.
Green New Deal Rising is a campaign group on a mission - to make the climate crisis the number one issue in politics. They believe that a Green New Deal could be the solution the world is looking for. And we couldn’t agree more. They believe in power in numbers and have a variety of ways to get involved, from becoming a member, to donating, to being a volunteer. And to join them in their mission, they have a fully remote team. So why not check out their open roles?
