About Us
MomentUs is a campaign calling for ambitious and equitable climate solutions at the local, regional and national levels. It was created by ecoAmerica and leaders and organizations from health, faith and local communities sectors to engage a broader diversity of Americans in climate action and advocacy, and make a meaningful difference in the trajectory of solutions.
MomentUs signatories affirm the public statement, engage in the call to action and agree to be listed in communications to local, regional and national policymakers and the public. They will be provided updates on the campaign’s progress, granted access to tools, resources and events, and welcomed into a network of collaboration and collective impact.
