Power Lines

<p><b>The essential anthology on the most effective ways to organize a labor movement for environmental justice, from leading organizers in the field<br></b><span><br></span></p><p>The corporate elite have long pitted climate and labor movements against each other through a “jobs vs. the environment” narrative that maximizes profits. But over the last few years, labor unions and climate organizers have been pushing back against this framework and organizing for a real just transition.</p><p>Featuring contributions from key organizers in climate justice and labor, <em>Power Lines</em> tackles the most pressing questions facing those who are trying to build a movement for economic and environmental justice. The collection provides practical organizing models and strategies as well as inspiration for the possibility of making change on climate.</p><p><em>Power Lines</em> moves beyond an analysis of the class politics of climate change or the strategic imperative of federal climate legislation, making the case for the urgency of a robust labor–climate justice movement. It also shows us how we can build that movement by sharing some of the most creative and effective organizing happening on the ground right now.</p>
