Action Center

Petitions, public comments, protests, and other ways to support environmental and community-focused causes.

Collective action matters. Your voice, presence, and participation help protect the places and communities we care about.

Below you will find current opportunities hand picked by our volunteers to take meaningful action in support of ecosystems, communities, and climate justice across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. These calls to action include petitions, public comment periods, community demonstrations, and other timely ways to show up and be heard.

Each listing is curated to ensure it is relevant, credible, and impactful. Whether you have five minutes to submit a petition or more time to participate in an in-person action, this page is designed to help you engage at a level that works for you. Check back often, as opportunities change quickly and many actions are time-sensitive.
