BAM is for the courageous young leader who feels a sense of urgency and responsibility for the planet.
We meet online every month for just an hour to challenge and guide each other as climate leaders.
Noon Pacific, Every First Friday of Month

The status quo is not working
Leaders of our institutions are dragging their feet, managing perceptions with minimal action rather than investing in the future of our planet.
We are greenwashing ourselves under water. Blowing smoke while the land burns. Producing hot air while our world gets hotter.
Young leaders have been making bold demands and driving change throughout history
At BAM, you are a speaker and facilitator. Come prepared to briefly say what you’re doing to create an impact.
BAM leaders ....
BOLDLY …
set high expectations for other organizations and their leaders, striving to influence universities, cities and large consumers of energy.
ALIGN …
other climate leaders. We all need to be working together and focused on driving real change, whether we’re part of Climate Reality, Sunrise Movement, Climate Ambassadors, or a green team. Let’s challenge other leaders to think bigger and sooner for the planet.
MOBILIZE …
a movement — not just a team, but a powerful wave, capable of disrupting organizations if they continue to drag their feet.
It’s time for a revolution for the planet
Building a solar array that produces 5% of an organization’s power is obviously a token gesture, unlikely to have a real impact.
Setting net zero goals without having a solid plan or making a meaningful investment is false and ultimately destructive.
Just talking about the climate is not enough. We need action. Now.
We meet the first Friday of each month, at noon Pacific. Here’s our basic process:
Say Hi
Small Groups
Where are you from and what are you working on?
Boldly …
What can you do that is bold? What expectations can you set? What is your vision for change over the next few years?
A few leaders will speak briefly, then we’ll break into small groups to talk about bold goals.
Align
Who are the organizations and leaders in your orbit? What are their motivations, needs and resources? How are you bringing people together and creating alignment around bold goals for urgent change?
Again, a few leaders will speak briefly, then we’ll break into small groups to talk about alignment of organizations and leaders.
and Mobilize
How can you reach people? How can you create a movement at scale?
You guessed it … a few leaders will speak briefly, then we’ll break into small groups to talk about mobilizing a movement.
Final groups
Stay and hang out as long as you want. Our small groups will stay open.
