At Roots Down, we know the climate crisis is real, and we believe cities sit at the center of both the challenge and the opportunity. That’s why we are redefining what climate leadership looks like in the urban sector. We bring together community power, thoughtful strategy, and practical on-the-ground solutions to build a healthier, more resilient future.
​
We recognize the scale of the problem, but we also see a clear path forward. By working closely with public agencies, youth programs, and community partners, we are creating a roadmap of climate solutions that uplift people, strengthen ecosystems, and deliver measurable relief to the communities most affected.
Together, we are shaping policy, preparing the next generation of green workers, reimagining urban land use, and demonstrating that local action can drive meaningful global change.

Led by young people, rooted in resilience, and ready to transform Atlanta one Regeneration Station at a time.
We Are the Re-generation, a Roots Down campaign, calls on Atlanta to rise, re-focus, and re-shape the future as the world turns its attention our way for the World Cup in Summer 2026. At the heart of this movement is regeneration, the practice of restoring ecosystems, strengthening community, and reconnecting people with nature in the places where daily life unfolds. It is our rallying cry and the force that brings young leaders together to re-think what nature in the city can look like, re-claim public spaces as places of learning and action, and re-build the connections that make communities stronger.
​
With GreenHive students trained in climate justice, equity and access from universities and colleges across Metro Atlanta, we are re-vitalizing libraries, transit corridors, parks, and campuses through Regeneration Stations powered by native plants, hands-on activations, and real-time data and storytelling.
​
Through this campaign, youth leadership will re-imagine Atlanta’s climate future and guide our city to re-define its legacy with creativity, resilience, and soil. Join us and help Atlanta show the world exactly what the Re-generation is capable of.
