About A2 (Anthropocene Alliance)
Anthropocene Alliance (A2) has more than 400 member-communities in all U.S. states and territories. They are impacted by flooding, toxic waste, wildfires, drought and heat — all compounded by reckless development and climate change.
The goal of A2 is to help communities fight back. We do that by providing them organizing support, scientific and technical guidance, and better access to foundation and government funding. Most of all, our work consists of listening and responding to our frontline leaders. Their experience, research, and solidarity guide everything we do, and offer a clear path toward environmental protection.
Supported by outstanding partner organizations with expertise in engineering, hydrology, public health, planning, and the law, A2 leaders have successfully halted developments in climate-vulnerable areas; implemented nature-based hazard mitigation strategies; organized home buyouts; and pushed for clean-ups at superfund sites, toxic landfills, and petrochemical plants.
