A2 (Anthropocene Alliance) has more than 400 member-communities in all U.S. states and territories. They are impacted by flooding, toxic waste, wildfires, and drought and heat — all compounded by reckless development and climate change. The goal of A2 is to help communities fight back. We do that by providing them organizing support, scientific and technical guidance, and better access to foundation and government funding. Most of all, our work consists of listening and responding to our frontline leaders. Their experience, research, and solidarity guide everything we do, and offer a path toward environmental protection and social justice.
