Think about who benefits from keeping us isolated and silent.

There was almost one discharge into our waterways every 30 seconds in 2024.
Thousands of people fell sick from contaminated water while our biodiversity is depleted.

Together we demand:

✅ Protect the workers, not the billionaires
✅ Make polluters pay

Feeling overwhelmed by the endless waves of bad news?
That’s not an accident, it’s a tactic!
Authoritarians flood us with chaos to wear us down. They want us to stop paying attention.
But we can fight back.
💥 Resistance isn’t always loud.
🌿 Softness isn’t surrender, it’s strategy.
