Save the date! February 27 - March 2, 2009
Power Shift 2009 is our opportunity to bring a clear message to Washington, "We want clean and just energy now!". In February, 2009 over 10,000 young people will converge on DC for three days of training, strategy and action. We will unite as a movement and hold our elected officials accountable.
Notice something different? After spending months rebooting and retooling our resources, we're happy to announce the launch of a new website, new campaign and tons of new organizing resources. We're ready to help teams across the country catalyze clean energy solutions through education, engagement and action. We hope you'll join us today!

As a regional organizer, sometimes it's hard to stay updated on all of the cool things people all over the northwest are doing in response to climate change, after all I'm only one person! I know I've got friends and fellow organizers doing amazing things at many other schools and within many other communities across the northwest... not to mention all of the other amazing people across the rest of the country! Organizing requires plenty of time and attention, and that's why the new FTN website means a lot to me, and YOU the real champion!
