Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Moral philosopher Henry Shue argues that we should think of our generation’s climate responsibility like the World War II generation’s duty to stop fascism. We were born into a critical historical moment and have an obligation to act.

This is something I've been thinking about a lot recently but I don't really know what to concretely do. I considered joining Extinction Rebellion or something but I don't really agree with their methods.

The route I've been mostly considering was starting something at my university and try and get the university board or whatever to actually take climate change seriously but I have my doubts on that working.

Does anyone have some suggestions on concrete actions one can take ?
