About 350 Madison Climate Action Team

350 Madison is dedicated to reducing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere to below the safe level of 350 parts per million. We were founded in 2012 by a diverse group of citizens who shared a deep concern about climate change. We now have an active, growing base of volunteers and supporters in Madison and south-central Wisconsin. We're one of 160 local chapters of 350.org, a global organization fighting climate change, whose network extends to 188 countries.

We have three campaigns:

  • Tar Sands pipelines.  We are committed to blocking the extraction, transport, and processing of dirty tar sands oil. Tar sands are a significant contributor to climate change, and pipeline spills pose a major risk to Wisconsin's environment.
  • Divestment.  We pressure banks, pension funds, and other financial institutions to stop investing in the fossil fuel industry. We encourage individuals to switch to sustainable investments.
  • Fossil-free cities. we work closely with Dane County communities to develop and implement sustainable energy plans and programs.
