Several months ago, VotersForPeace initiated the NoWarNoWarming coalition with national peace and climate VotersForPeace, United for Peace and Justice, Peace Action, CODEPINK, Global Exchange and others are supporting the StepItUp campaign, an exciting national day of climate action on April 14th which is hosting more than 1100 local events.
