• ENGAGE IN DIPLOMACY AND COORDINATION TO ADDRESS GLOBAL PROBLEMS:
  Support policies and diplomacy that strengthen international cooperation between nations, especially the US, the EU, and China, in order to achieve a sustainable, equitable global economy for people of all countries.

• ACCELERATE A JUST TRANSITION TO A CLEAN ENERGY ECONOMY:
  Divest from fossil fuels and advance green industrial and agricultural policy for a just transition to a clean energy economy. This means supporting fossil fuel-dependent workers and communities and equitably and democratically addressing the ongoing challenges of extracting minerals and raw materials for green technology. Likewise, we should support policies that strengthen workers’ rights and collective bargaining around the world and reform international trade and investment rules that hinder climate action.

• SHARE GREEN TECHNOLOGY EQUITABLY:
  Promote the sharing of green technology with countries around the world, particularly low and middle income countries, with attention to ensuring development and deployment of technologies does not harm any community. We have all the technology we need to address the climate crisis, but currently rich countries and elites hoard technology for private profit.

• SUFFICIENT FUNDING FOR LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES TO TRANSITION TO GREEN ECONOMIES:
  Ensure the US provides its share of public international funding that reflects its historic responsibility for climate crisis, to developing countries to address the impacts of the climate crisis, for adapting to a changing climate, transitioning to green energy, and addressing loss and the damages from climate disasters. This investment should also not further burden developing countries with debt.

• DEBT RESTRUCTURING AND CANCELLATION:
  Support low and middle income countries in building green infrastructure and developing their economies by canceling and restructuring sovereign debt to both public and private creditors. Following decades of neocolonial and exploitative debt deals, including with US financial institutions, many low and middle income countries face debt crises and can’t enact meaningful climate policies in their countries because of this debt.

• DEMOCRATIC PUBLIC AND COMMUNITY OWNERSHIP OF ENERGY:
  Invest in the public sector and public goods to ensure that we rapidly and sustainably shift to a green economy. The private sector has not delivered on the urgent need to address the climate crisis and the most efficient, effective, and just transition requires bold public investment in renewable energy infrastructure and a mix of community-owned distributed energy and public control of utilities to be successful.  

• SUPPORT FOR CLIMATE REFUGEES:
  The climate emergency has had a disproportionate impact on people across low and middle income countries, particularly in the Global South. We must promote policies that demilitarize borders, and welcome, rather than restrict, the free movement of people fleeing climate disaster and energy conflict.

• DEESCALATE MILITARY CONFLICT AND CREATE THE CONDITIONS FOR PEACE:
  Support policies aimed at enhancing cooperation and peace-building over conflict. This includes reductions in the US military budget, freeing up public funds for social goods and programs, including funds for a just green transition and to meet human needs in the United States and around the world.

Do you pledge to support this agenda and work together in solidarity with others around the world to combat the climate crisis?
