Our Goals
Climate Justice London is helping to build a grassroots movement for social and environmental justice. We are an anti-corporate, anti-racist, pro-feminist group which challenges all forms of social injustice. We also believe that the climate change crisis only can be resolved by rejecting market ‘solutions,’ as well as fossil energy systems.
Our group is affiliated with an activism and publishing network called Rising Tide North America. Through that network, we are joining collaborative mobilizations for climate justice.
We also are affiliated with the Climate Justice Now! network.
We formed this local group to answer a 2009 “letter to the grassroots” from the Mobilization for Climate Justice, which called for activists to help build a North American climate justice movement that emphasizes actions and public education to mobilize for effective and just solutions to the climate crisis.
The Mobilization for Climate Justice called for activists…
1) To build a global movement for climate justice that encourages urgent action to avoid catastrophic climate change, and which addresses the root social, ecological, political and economic causes of the climate crisis toward a total systemic transformation of our society.
2) To promote and strengthen the rights and voices of Indigenous and other affected peoples, including workers in energy-intensive industries, in climate mitigation and adaptation strategies.
3) To expose the consequences of false and market-based climate “solutions” as well as corporate domination of climate negotiations, while advancing alternatives that can provide real and just solutions and which protect biodiversity.
If you agree with these goals, please join us in taking action for climate justice!
