We need to unify American support toward effective solutions.
Our moment for climate action is now. Join the MomentUs movement by completing the form below and indicating if you are signing as an individual, organization or both.

MomentUs Statement
We need to address climate change now. Together, we can bring about ambitious and equitable solutions rooted in shared American values that address climate risks and impacts and bring broad benefits to society. We have a moral imperative to act individually, organizationally and collectively to protect our health, our children, our communities, and our future while there is time left to chart a new path forward.
We call for ambitious climate policies from local, regional and national policymakers that eliminate carbon pollution, restore thriving natural systems, and prioritize justice and equity to protect and support all Americans. These solutions must halve carbon emissions each decade going forward, begin removing existing carbon pollution and correct racial, cultural, and economically based inequities and injustices.
We will also take action in our workplaces, communities, organizations and our homes to eliminate and reverse our contributions to climate pollution, advocate for ambitious policies at the local, regional and national levels, and encourage others to do the same.
Climate change is becoming irreversible, with consequences so dramatic they are impossible to overstate. But as before, in the darkest of times, American ingenuity and compassion can prevail for a brighter and more equitable tomorrow. Together we can turn this moment of trial into our greatest triumph. We invite you to join us.

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.
