We discuss the Green New Deal and how youth movements like the Sunrise Movement are the secret sauce in getting the federal government to drive the effort to stop the climate crisis.

Aru's civic action toolkit recommendations are:

1. Hold on to a disciplined form of hope

2. Join Sunrise Movement! Sunrisemovement.org/become-a-member

Aru Shiney-Ajay is the executive director of Sunrise Movement, a movement of young people to stop climate change and create millions of good jobs in the process.
