Our Valentines Media Release
Many social media platforms that people are hooked on are owned or controlled by the Nerd Reich— and thus pretty much useless for grassroots movements unless you have massive followings or deep pockets. But a thriving democracy needs a strong, independent news industry. That’s why we’re doubling down on our theory of change and championing local media. Our latest media release, Embrace the F-words,is cheeky but steeped integrity and links to our current Laser Talk Booklet.

Invite Your New Members to Our Leaders Launch Pad
Every Wednesday, we welcome climate leaders who are ready to build relationships with their MPs and drive political will locally. New members often aren’t sure where to start or don’t yet fully understand what we do. Invite them to this call. Post it in your CCL Community group, and send regular reminders that it is never too late to start being a CCLer. Join Us
Write to Ignite! Every Wednesday Night too
Central to our theory of change is building political will locally and key to that is getting into our local newspapers.
