Recently, frontline leaders from Memphis came together to discuss one of the most urgent environmental justice battles happening right now — the fight against xAI's data center expansion and its implications for communities on the front lines of the tech boom.

Our Programs & Engagement Manager Ena Coleman moderated the conversation and captured the stakes perfectly:

"Across the country, frontline leaders are proving that community-led organizing can challenge even the largest tech expansion. But as billions flow into data infrastructure—not communities—real investment in local leadership is essential to protect communities and redefine what equitable development looks like."

One message came through clearly: data centers are not an inevitability. Communities have the right to shape what development looks like, ask hard questions, demand accountability, and determine what investments align with their needs and future.

Thank you to panelists LaTricea Adams of Young, Gifted & Green, KeShaun Pearson of Memphis Community Against Pollution , and Sarah Houston of Protect Our Aquifer for a rich and necessary conversation — and to our co-host Data Center Advocacy Hub for bringing it together.

The Lincoln Recreational Center is considered "the heartbeat" of Oakland's Chinatown. For decades, it served generations of Asian immigrant and refugee families, offering programming, classes, and community gatherings in their languages and rooted in their culture.

But the aging building, built in the 1970s, has long outgrown the community it serves.

Through tireless organizing with the community and the city, Asian Pacific Environmental Network (APEN) helped secure a $9.25 million state grant to expand Lincoln Rec into a full climate resilience hub. This summer, they are scheduled to break ground.

The expanded center will add backup solar power, clean air filtration, emergency shelter, multilingual communications, and culturally appropriate resources for everyday needs and climate emergencies.

This is what it looks like when a community is the architect of their own resilience.

We are proud to be long-term supporters of .

The Solutions Project team joined organizers, artists, lawyers, tech workers, and advocates in Atlanta for Take Back Tech, to strategize the next moves in the fight against the tech oligarchy.

The conversation was clear: AI data centers are being built on the backs of communities of color. Big Tech is following Big Oil’s playbook — extracting resources, exporting harm, and counting on communities not having the power to fight back. But they do.

Communities are organizing, mobilizing, and winning. It was an honor to be at the event alongside many of our grantee partners:









Thank you to and for bringing together such an important gathering to tackle one of the defining issues of our time.

The protections working people have today weren't given. They were won through decades of collective action, sacrifice, and solidarity.

The labor movement and the climate justice movement are deeply connected. Both are fighting for the right to live and work with dignity, in healthy communities, free from exploitation.

Today, we honor the organizers who came before us and those pushing forward to build the future we all want and deserve.

Listen to the People on the Ground.” That is what defines The Solutions Project co-founder activism.

On an episode of with , Mark discussed the importance of entrusting frontline communities to lead on climate solutions, the roots of his activism, and the early beginnings of the Solutions Project.

The Solutions Project is a national nonprofit supporting climate solutions created and proven effective by communities – Black, Indigenous, women, communities of color, and working-class communities – who are hit the hardest by climate change. We fund their work, share their stories, and bring more and more people into their ground up movement for a world where everyone has clean air, water, energy, and land.

Together we can create the future we want. And that starts by listening to the frontline communities on the ground most impacted by climate change. They hold the keys to the solutions.

Make sure to follow .project to help create the future we all deserve.

Today we're releasing a new report: Climate Justice: The Narrative Shift.

In the wake of the 2024 election, we wanted to understand what the current narrative landscape actually looks like for climate justice communications, and how to most effectively reach a wider audience.

We spent months in deep conversation with over 50 grassroots organizers, researchers, communications strategists, and movement leaders. We asked hard questions about what's working, where the opportunities are, and what this moment demands of the climate communications field.

Here is what we found: Building a winning climate constituency isn't about finding the perfect message. It's about investing in coordinated, relationship-centered storytelling that reaches diverse audiences, through the voices they already trust, on the platforms where they already spend time.

The audience is ready. This report is our roadmap for reaching them.

We know that people are at the heart of climate solutions. Even in a high-stakes moment such as this, change is always possible – and creative, durable strategies are already underway.

This is not a moment to retreat. It is a moment to push forward, towards the horizon. It’s a moment that requires courage, unity, and exercising fortitude together.

Across the country, our grantee partners are building climate resilience on their own terms. Frontline communities are leading the way, and we are proud to resource and amplify their work.

Recently, highlighted a few of their stories — from producing clean drinking water in South Carolina to repairing flood-damaged homes in Houston, growing food for neighbors in North Richmond, training workers for clean energy jobs in Buffalo, and bringing light back to the streets of Highland Park.

This is what climate justice solutions look like when they come from the frontline communities most impacted by climate change.
