BREAKING: Activists raise banner on Trump Tower!

Greenpeace

Kathleen-

Today, Trump received a message that he couldn't ignore. We will RESIST and DEFEND our planet and communities!

Are you ready to join the Summer of Resistance?

The Summer of Resistance is heating up. Now we need YOU to join in!

It's a sunny day in my hometown — and Greenpeace activists have just sent Trump and his pro-polluter team a message he can't ignore: we will band together to resist and defend against Trump's dangerous agenda. As the massive banner unfurled in front of Chicago's Trump Tower, I've never been more proud of my city — and of the resistance community sparking up all over the country.

And this act of resistance is just the beginning. All summer long, Greenpeace will be turning up the heat on Trump and his fossil fuel cronies through creative resistance and non-violent direct action. Now it's time for YOU to join in to create change where you live. Sign up today for our Summer of Resistance!

There's never been a more important time to resist the Trump administration's pro-polluter agenda and DEFEND our planet and communities. In rapid-fire succession, Trump has already unleashed multiple attacks on our water, air, climate, and health. This is an administration that sees American lives and the health of the planet as disposable, and it is using all its power to execute that vision. And often, poor, immigrant and communities of color — like the one I grew up in here in Chicago — will be the ones who feel the harshest effects.

There's never been a more important time for action. That's why I've joined Greenpeace's Summer of Resistance, where people from all over the country — people just like you and me — can gain the tools they need to stand up against injustice in their own communities. Will you join me and thousands of others to make your summer a Summer of Resistance? When you sign up, we'll show you how to join free local trainings and creative, non-violent resistance actions — or show you how to host your own creative resistance event!

It doesn't matter if you've never marched, joined a peaceful protest, or done any sort of direct action before. Greenpeace's Summer of Resistance is for anyone who wants to make a difference. Whatever issue you're most passionate about — climate change, clean air and water, social justice — this is the moment to take the next step and give your all. Join the Summer of Resistance now!

For our climate, health and communities,

P.S. I grew up in Chicago. I love my city. Today I was reminded why. I was so proud to witness this act of creative resistance, and now I hope you'll join me to oppose Trump's anti-climate attacks with YOUR acts of resistance where you live. Thanks in advance for getting involved!

Greenpeace never takes a dime from corporations or governments. Everything we do is thanks to the generous support of people like you!
