   About Rising Tide! Climate Action Tour
The Rising Tide Climate Action Tour is coming to your town! When we get there, we'll pour out of our bumble-bus with an array of presentations, workshops, trainings, and discussions intended to convey the urgency of climate chaos and incite communities into taking action towards autonomy, justice, and resistance!

Our main presentation includes stories from the front-lines of fossil fuel resistance in Appalachia, Black Mesa, Venezuela, and the UK. We take a popular education approach, and use games and discussions to engage communities in conversations about decreasing our dependency on the corporations and governments that are fueling the climate crises. In addition to our main presentation, at many stops we will be partnering with local groups to offer an array of workshops including:

Food Sovereignty: Resisting Agrobusiness and going Local!

Confronting Hopelessness: Climate Change and Mental Health

Indigenous Struggles in Venezuela: Resisting Fossil Fuels

Direct Action 101

Building Community Healthcare Networks

Grassroots Disaster Relief Training

Basic First Aid / Health & Safety Training

Forest Defense 101

Consensus Facilitation Training

Strategic Planning

Organizing Large Scale Convergences: Horizontalism and Logistics

Rebel Clown Army Training

Making the Links: Radical Feminism and Environmental Ethics

AND WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! This tour is a massive undertaking and we are so greatful to the communities that have been hosting and supporting us. If you'd like to help out with promoting one of our dates, dumpstering food before we get into town, sending money or supplies, helping us while we're in town with transportation, logistics, etc. we would love you forever and it would help us accomplish our mission of connecting with local communities to build an international grassroots movement that can respond to climate change.

2007!!!!Children's School sits under Coal Treatment Plant, What would Jesus do ?

Marsh Fork Elementary School in WV, sits just 225 feet from a coal loading silo that releases chemical-laden coal dust and 400 yards from a 385 foot tall leaking sludge dam with a nearly 3 billion gallon capacity. An independent study has shown the school to be full of coal dust.

If you have never heard of Marsh Fork Elementary School in WV, watch this. Ed Wiley, grandfather to a pupil,(she has since graduated), talks about the need to build a new school.Last year Ed walked from WV to Washington DC, to raise awareness about the issue.
