The temptation to give in to climate doomerism can be strong, especially when we see new climate disasters every day and our political atmosphere feels almost as heated as our planet. While there is still much that needs to be done, we have been making incredible progress toward a clean energy future. It’s clear to me that our organizing, advocacy and activism have driven this progress. Our movement is succeeding — and we need to keep at it. Even though organizing, activism and advocacy work can be a hard grind, there’s no substitute for building people power. This work is what has made our movement successful and it’s the work that we must continue to invest in. ~ Flora Cardoni, PennEnvironment
