2025 EarthAction Report
The following projects were made possible with your support. Thank You.
2020 Action: Every month, 2020 Action educated and mobilized thousands of US citizens and encouraged them to communicate with US policymakers on critically important peace and environmental issues. 2026 will be 2020’s 40th year! That’s persistence!
Climate Change: EarthAction’s Climate Scorecard project tracked the progress, or lack of it, of the top greenhouse gas-emitting countries to meet their emission reduction targets. It provided regular Global Spotlight Reports on critical aspects of stabilizing our global climate in the areas of agriculture, power systems, water, and making and keeping greenhouse gas reduction pledges.
The American Friends of the Palestinian House of Friendship: In 2025, EarthAction helped to raise over $120,000 to support the Palestinian House of Friendship (PHF) in Nablus, Palestine, a community organization that provides programs for children and their families. These included: summer camps; a skate park; after-school programs and e-learning for kids unable to go to school due to violence; Girl Scouts; women’s choruses; a music studio; a free library, and “The Green Hands Initiative,” where children learn to love the land and plant vegetables. PHF also continued its democracy training program to prepare its citizens to build a New Democratic Society. In November, in the face of horrifying violence from the Israeli government and illegal settlers that destroyed thousands of olive trees, PHF began a project with farmers to help them harvest and protect their olive groves and replant what has been destroyed.
The Elders Project (TEP) in Colombia continued to assist the traditional authorities (Mamos) of the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta (SNSM). Rick Harlow, the Project Director, traveled to Colombia to help coordinate and fund the spiritual ceremonies of the four ‘brothers’: the Arhuacos, Koguis, Wiwas, and Kankuamos. TEP’s continuing support of the 4 pueblos in performing their spiritual work has helped strengthen the Elders in their efforts to comply with their Law of Origin, to balance nature in ‘The Heart of the World.’
The Indigenous Solidarity Fund continued to support elder wisdom keepers in Colombia and around the Americas. The ISF continued to facilitate the participation of elders from various territories in Colombia in the Jornadas de Paz y Dignidad (Peace and Dignity Journeys), where they accompanied more than 100 representatives from diverse indigenous communities from around the Americas in their mission to promote peace, share mythologies, and develop mutual understanding for the benefit of future generations.
