From organizing Montreal climate marches to taking the Canadian government to court, Shirley Barnea keeps finding new ways to push for change.
#MeetingTheMoment is about Climate Reality Leaders like her —– showing there’s more than one way to #ActOnClimate

Your electricity bill shouldn’t become the catch-all for somebody else’s massive energy needs. 🦓 EBRA can help make large power users pay the direct grid costs they create instead of shifting them onto everyone else. If you agree, Congress needs to hear it: https://t.co/RzAs6q0rvS

On September 21, climate advocates around the world and YOU will come together again for Zero Emissions Day – with one shared goal: #CheapCleanEnergyNow.
We’re ready to take action. Are you in? https://t.co/uUDGFRtAwF
You don’t need a seat at COP 31 climate talks to have something to say about who gets one.
Put your name behind a simple expectation: The industry profiting from fossil fuels should not be shaping negotiations about ending use of its products. https://t.co/zEKzTf5Aa2
The Trump Administration’s action today ensures that the crippling costs and burdens of power plant pollution will continue to be borne by our families and generations to come – all to save wealthy fossil fuel plant operators from the comparatively minor costs of doing the right thing. It is an immoral and corrupt act. Read our full statement: https://t.co/1wA9UaAQVh
Co-sign @algore. He said @EPA is moving the United States “‘in the exact opposite direction of the rest of the world. With ongoing disruption in global energy markets, the clear answer to rising costs and energy security is clean energy.”
But even as the Trump administration ‘is dragging the U.S. backwards,’ the transition to clean energy transition ‘will continue to take hold ... both in the U.S. and globally.’”

Welcome to “the largest public corruption announcement in U.S. history,” bailing out Trump’s big fossil fuel donors by letting them pollute your air and atmosphere for free. Fossil fuel wins; you pay.

Remember our Global Week of Action in June? Thousands of people came together across communities and around the world to call for a clean energy future — and now, we’re keeping that momentum going with a one-day action on September 21 for Zero Emissions Day!
It’s time to mark your calendar and get ready to take action. Together, we can help make #CheapCleanEnergyNow a reality by pushing for clean energy that’s more affordable, more accessible, and better for our communities than fossil fuels.
If you’ve ever looked at fossil fuel lobbyists showing up at climate talks and thought, “How does that make sense?” — this is your chance to say so.

Put your name behind the demand. We’ll take that message to delegates at this year’s COP 31 climate summit.
HY William Chan never wanted to be a politician.
In fact, he had become disillusioned with politics. But as an architect and urban planner, he understood that the decisions we make about our cities eventually become the streets, homes, parks, and neighborhoods people live in for decades.
After Australia’s devastating Black Summer bushfires blanketed Sydney in smoke, William found himself thinking about who would live with the consequences of the climate crisis.
His generation would.
So when he was given an opportunity to step up, he said yes.
William went on to become the youngest city councilor in Sydney’s history, bringing his experience in architecture, climate advocacy, and community building into local government – and helping push for cities to have a greater voice in global climate conversations.
What gets William out of bed each morning is the belief that the choices we make today can give the generations after us more possibilities, stronger communities, and greater hope.

#MeetingtheMoment is our 20th anniversary spotlight series celebrating 20 Climate Reality Leaders around the world and the many ways they’re turning awareness into action.
Pass #EBRA, and families could have stronger protections and support when extreme heat, floods, and other emergencies make losing electricity especially dangerous. Power can mean cooling, heat, medical devices work and medicine survives, and safety. Help get those protections through Congress now. https://t.co/RzAs6q0rvS

From our Singapore training, Jitsai Santapurta of the Thailand Youth Climate Council joined CNA to discuss what it takes to turn climate ambition into meaningful action in communities.
https://t.co/UIWtnWjS2a
Our Singapore training brought some big climate finance questions to the table — including how we stop waiting until disaster strikes to invest in solutions.
Almo Pradana, Director of Climate at Asia Climate Philanthropy Advisory, joined CNA to explain why funding needs to move earlier and how that can help communities prepare while scaling solutions across the region. Watch the conversation:

We are way past the point where “maybe next year” works for climate action.
So no, fossil fuel lobbyists don’t need another year of access to where global climate decisions are made.
If that sounds obvious to you too, put your name behind it so we can show delegates at this year’s COP 31 climate summit.

Check out our CEO Phyllis Cuttino on CNA, talking about why Asia will play such a critical role in shaping the future of global climate action over the next decade.

New Climate Reality Leaders in Singapore got down to business to explore the climate challenges they face at home and strategize on real world solutions.
Organized by Climate Reality and The Climate Reality Project Asia, the two-day session aims to equip the newest cohort of Climate Reality Leaders with the skills, network, and resources to support #ClimateAction in their respective communities.
