Walk For Appalachia's Future: Newport, VA
From May 24th-June 6th we will be traveling along the route of the Mountain Valley Pipeline. We seek to amplify the voices of frontline Appalachian communities and others in their fight for environmental justice and renewable energy. We will be working to challenge the environmental damages being done by all fossil fuels, and to cancel the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) and the MVP Southgate extension, whose construction has already devastated parts of WV, VA and NC.
Updates on the Walk’s progress are being posted on Facebook and on Twitter with the hashtag #AppalachiaWalk.

If you are trying to find the Walk, call Steve at (828) 777-7816 or Ted at (973) 460-1458 or email [email protected].
All along the pipeline route we will inspect damages to water, air, animals, and the Earth, and the people who depend on them; and we will every morning have ceremonies honoring the heroes in our states who have died during these fights to protect our Appalachia.
Communities affected by the Mountain Valley Pipeline and other destructive/extractive industries are invited to participate in the event in whatever way is best or most advantageous to them. For example, they can join our walk or have the walk come to them.
We plan to use the two-week journey on foot and by vehicle to support frontline communities first and foremost by listening. As appropriate, walkers may be called upon to support local campaigns for economic, racial and climate justice by amplifying their voices in various media, standing alongside them at rallies and protests, participating in and hosting workshops, and honoring the heroes of the struggle who are no longer with us.
Walk organizers consist of dedicated environmental justice workers from West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina and beyond, and members of seasoned organizations such as 7 Directions of Service, POWHR, Beyond Extreme Energy, Th!rd Act, NC Alliance to Protect the People and the Places We Live, Chesapeake Climate Action Network, and others.

Climate & the Midterms: Happy Hour with Climate Cabinet Action
Join Climate Cabinet Action to learn how you can get involved the highest impact climate elections of this Midterm cycle.
Climate Cabinet Action helps candidates run, win, and legislate on the climate crisis.
Join us to learn about the highest impact climate elections of this Midterm cycle – at the state and local level.
We have built the largest national database of climate candidates and political opportunities in the US. We use it to find specific races that will have outsized impact on climate action and environmental justice now, while building long-term power for the climate movement.
Join us on May 17 for drinks and climate action at Busboys & Poets on V and 14th St NW!
Climate Action Reboot
Make no mistake, now is NOT the time to give up on climate action in Congress. In fact, there has never been a more critical time to be fighting for climate action in our nation’s capital. Join us on this webinar to hear what is happening and why – and what we can accomplish together.
Join the Chesapeake Climate Action Network Action Fund, West Virginia Rivers and Evergreen Action for a webinar delivering insight on the state of play of climate legislation in Congress, Sen. Manchin, and what justice demands legislators do.
Fight For Our Future Rally
President Biden and Congress are finally on the edge of taking climate action at the scale the crisis demands – creating millions of union clean energy and care jobs, racial, economic, and environmental justice are all on the line. But they won’t take action without a push from us!
Sign the Fight for our Future pledge now, and RSVP to join us in Lafayette Square in front of the White House at 1pm on Saturday, April 23rd to demand bold action on climate, care, jobs, and justice!
Climate action at the scale of the crisis. Millions of union clean energy and care jobs. Racial, economic, and environmental justice. This was the transformational vision that got President Biden and Democrats elected. For months, we’ve waited for them to keep their promise and pass a bill to make that vision a reality. But special interests have continued to block progress, against the will of the people.
Enough is enough. We cannot wait any longer. Every year the heat rises, storms worsen, and our dependence on foreign fuels enables authoritarian power grabs–as the world is witnessing with the invasion of Ukraine. We need a massive build-out of American-made clean energy to preserve a habitable planet, create good union jobs, and lower energy bills. We need Congress and state legislatures to invest in an equitable transition to clean energy, made right here in America, and to invest in care jobs to preserve a livable planet and thriving, sustainable communities.
Now is the time to give it everything we’ve got. This Earth Day, we’re calling for a nationwide mobilization to crank up the pressure and get these historic investments over the finish line.
On Saturday, April 23, we commit to sending President Biden, Congress, and lawmakers at all levels of government a message they can’t ignore.
