Who We Are

OUR MISSION

ecoAmerica moves society toward climate solutions by engaging and supporting trusted national institutions to inspire and empower their millions of members in local communities across America to visibly act and advocate for ambitious, just, climate mitigation, resilience, and restoration.

OUR PRINCIPLES

Ambition: Climate action and advocacy must include everyone, every day and work toward immediate comprehensive solutions, not incremental progress. We need to stop burning fossil fuels now.

Justice: If we solve climate challenges for the most vulnerable, first, we’ll solve them for all of us. Climate solutions are only effective when they address economic, democratic, health, and other injustices.

Restoration: We need to shift focus from mitigation to restoration in all climate solutions. Healthy nature can restore itself, heal the planet, and heal society.

Everyone, Every Day
