About Climate Defiance
We do direct action. We get in the face of climate criminals and politicians who enable them, call them out for their misdeeds, and share videos of them fleeing.
And we get results.
- We played a major role in the White House's decision to freeze approval of all new gas export infrastructure.
- The New York Times has profiled our group.
- Deputy Interior Secretary Tommy Beaudreau (who signed Willow) resigned 15 days after we protested him.
- Jody Freeman resigned from Conoco just weeks after we protested her.
Here is the word on the street about us:
Congressman Ro Khanna said about our group: "You have gotten the country's attention...People in Congress are talking about you. Senators are talking about you. The President is talking about you. And remember this, the future is with you.”
Chelsea Handler said Climate Defiance is "the best new, nonpartisan group that goes after politicians on both sides in the U.S."
Steven Donziger said: "They do what is needed better than just about any group in the world. Climate Defiance has shown time and again the ability to execute effectively on the strategy of disruptive activism and to reach millions of people in the process."
Don't Look Up creator Adam McKay said: "I love Climate Defiance...They’re one of the most energetic, loud, and focused activist movements in the last 30 years."
