The Fight to End Fossil Fuels Continues!
2024-11-20 19:00 - 20:30 | MD
We are sending our love and solidarity to you and your loved ones today. Trump’s victory will make our work so much harder in the years ahead and right now, it’s important that we take the time to mourn, grieve and be with loved ones.
But there’s still so much that we can do. As Rebecca Solnit writes, “The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything and everything we can save is worth saving.”
This was our task yesterday, and it is our task in the years ahead: to save as much that is good and beautiful in this world as we possibly can.
With that said, there is no doubt the result of the 2024 elections will have astounding impacts on the future of our communities, our campaigns, and our planet.
We invite you to join Stop the Money Pipeline on Wednesday, November 20th at 7pm ET / 4pm PT for a conversation in response to the 2024 elections, including how we are preparing to organize to continue holding the financiers of fossil fuels accountable.
Here are the details:

What: The Fight to End Fossil Fuels Continues! What’s next following the 2024 Elections?
When: Wednesday, November 20th at 7pm ET / 4pm PT
Where: On Zoom! RSVP here to get the Zoom link.

We will be joined by some of our movement’s most inspiring and badass leaders:

Dr. Crystal Cavalier-Keck, 7 Directions of Service (North Carolina)
Roishetta Ozane, The Vessel Project (Louisiana)
Tara Houska (Minnesota)

I am honored to be moderating this conversation and hope you all can join us for what will be a powerful and inspiring event.
Our goal is to continue growing our campaigns to keep fighting the financiers of climate destruction. On the call, we will share tactics and ideas for sustained engagement in the Mountain Valley Pipeline fight, the Gulf South Stop LNG campaign, and the Costco, Citi, and Vanguard campaigns.
RSVP now for this important conversation happening on Zoom the evening of November 20th at 7pm ET / 4pm PT.
We will keep organizing and taking care of each other, how we have been, and how we will continue to do every day. We hope you’ll join us.
