A Green New Deal: Ten Million Climate Jobs to Help Solve The Economic And Environmental Crises
Organized Power exists to bring working people, community organizers, labor groups, local governments and main street businesses together to take urgent and radical action two of the most urgent issues of our time:
1. Reversing extreme inequality through comprehensive jobs programs. We strive for a rad
ical shift in economic priorities that retools basic infrastructure to mitigate climate change and provide full employment to working people. Climate destabilization is emerging as the gravest threat to our planet and every living being on it. The danger climate change poses ranks alongside all-out war with modern weapons of mass-destruction. The irreversible damage already done will continue to worsen for as long as we fail to act. The threat of economic destabilization ranks alongside climate change as one of the most significant threats to humankind. The extreme polarization wealth, political power and access to fundamental resources is at the root of virtually all human conflict. Trends in each of these areas are worsening by the day. Organized Power’s climate change objective is to secure the action we need—locally, nationally and internationally—to minimize devastating impacts of climate destabilization. Our goal is to raise awareness about the gravity and urgency of the threat from climate change, and to organize an effective, grassroots-powered response. Organized Power aims to bring together as many people as possible who support our broad aims of pushing for urgent action on climate and reducing global emissions.
