Welcome to the Elders for Climate Justice website. We are Elders for Climate Justice, dedicated to creating conversations about climate change, and urgently encouraging action.

Mission

Seeking a just and sustainable world, we Elders for Climate Justice work to actively address the accelerating climate crisis that threatens us, our children, those who will follow, and all other life on our beloved planet.

Goals

To heighten awareness about the urgency of the climate crisis, engaging with and inspiring people to take positive actions to mitigate the destruction of our biosphere, and to preserve the viability, beauty, and biodiversity for future generations.
To support the youth and others, particularly the most vulnerable, on the frontline of the battle to curb the climate crisis.
To share our accumulated wisdom to leave our planet a more sustainable and just place than we currently find it.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.
