Green Corps is looking for college graduates who are ready to take on the biggest environmental challenges of our day.
Their program starts by putting you in an intensive classroom training. You learn about issues and campaigns, organizing theory and principles, and skills from recruiting volunteers to staging a media event. Then, you move to a more hands-on experience. You make a difference on important campaigns to transition our country to clean energy, protect wildlife, and more. For example, Lauren Karpinski, an organizer from the Green Corps Class of 2019, brought together a coalition of 40 groups that helped win a landmark solar energy bill in Arkansas this past year.
Apply now to be considered for their 2021/2022 cohort.

Our last Third Thursday CAFE of the quarter is this Thursday from 8-9pm PST.
We are excited to have guest speaker Dr. Kristina Mendez from UCSD CAPS to discuss our own relationship with nature and how capitalism and colonialism impacts our wellbeing.

Allies in the University of California, please help.
A super concrete thing you can do - sign up NOW to speak to, or write to, the Regents.
We need the Regents to set goals for the UC to get off fossil fuels; for energy systems and for finance.

Scientists @UofCalifornia strongly suggest early-retirement of gas-burning plants.
"... power sector capital ... will take decades to retire unless its value is sacrificed, and lower-warming scenarios often demand such sacrifice."
