Building the Abundance Coalition

Abundance has been the hot topic on a lot of our minds since Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson released their book earlier this year. But how do we make the vision of Abundance politics become a reality? A new coalition of advocates may serve as the answer. On this episode of Infill, YIMBY Action's Gillian Pressman speaks with Deputy Director at the Breakthrough Institute, Alex Trembath, about how the Abundance coalition and movement are beginning to take form. The Breakthrough Institute is the lead host of the upcoming Abundance Conference, where hundreds of leaders and activists will come together to chart the course for the Abundance movement. Tune in to learn more about the environmental work that the Breakthrough Institute does, how advocates can come together even while having differences in frameworks and approaches to advance a shared vision, and what Alex is hoping to see come from the Abundance Conference and movement! Learn more about the Breakthrough Institute: https://thebreakthrough.org/Learn more about YIMBY Action: yimbyaction.org/joinFollow YIMBY Action on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yimbyaction/Follow YIMBY Action on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/yimbyaction.bsky.socialFollow YIMBY Action on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yimbyaction/
