With the election coming up, and the massive importance of dealing with climate change now more than ever, come learn about a new initiative for getting voters to prioritize climate change as an issue at the ballot box as well as getting already climate conscious individuals to turn out. This initiative called “Be the Climate GOAT: Get out the Climate Vote” has already entailed hundreds of conversations conducted by higher Ed and youth action team volunteers reaching out to people they know (friends, family, etc.) and then recruiting some of the people they talk to as volunteers in a process of relational organizing. And on average it has shifted voters up the scale in terms of prioritizing climate as an issue, particularly utilizing our own deep canvassing script, based off of other successful deep canvassing efforts. If you’d like to learn more about these methods, please come and join the workshop to see how you can use these methods in your own election work!

I alerted the Environmental Voter Project (www.environmentalvoter.org) and Swing Left (swingleft.org) about this event to make sure that connections are made.
