Right-wing forces are working very hard to ensure that no one connects disasters with climate change (and net 0 policy). Climate activists, presumably, need ways to push back. I want to argue that winning in this space requires climate activists to build alliances with survivors of disasters and people at risk. It’s a big opportunity to finally broaden the base of support for the climate movement. It’s also a huge challenge. I want to offer thoughts about these challenges and opportunities and offer examples of people doing serious work in this space (including us at Flooded People!)
