If you must overreact, do it responsibly.
The Campaign for Sustainable Overreactions is the leading nonprofit working to make civic outrage carbon-neutral, durable, and accountable. Join us.
Our Mission
Outrage is not the problem. Wasteful outrage is the problem.
The Campaign measures, offsets, and credentials civic overreaction so that the energy spent on grievance does not exceed the gain it produces. Since 2017, our programs have offset more than 47,000 tantrums and put 1.2 million reusable pitchforks into responsible circulation.
Programs
Eight active programs covering the full lifecycle of responsible overreaction — from prevention through credentialing.
Carbon-Neutral Outrage Kits
Everything you need for a sustainable meltdown, in one biodegradable box.

Voices of the Campaign
“Joining the Campaign changed how I show up to every PTA meeting. I am still myself. I am just a more carbon-efficient version of myself.”
— Linda Morrissey, PTA Board Chair
“We integrated the Campaign's frameworks into our team rituals two years ago. Per-engineer outrage emissions dropped 71% in the first quarter and have stayed there.”
— Eleanor Whittaker, Head of Engineering
“Used to lose half a Saturday to a single contractor dispute. Now I file it through the methodology, buy the offset, and move on. The Saturdays are mine again.”
— Tony Mazetti, Contractor
The next overreaction is already happening somewhere.
