{{toplink|url=http://www.eqat.org|name=eqat.org}}'''Earth Quaker Action Team''' (EQAT) introduces itself with the line, "Building a just & sustainable economy through nonviolent direct action", and {{gives}}<blockquote>Earth Quaker Action Team is a grassroots, nonviolent action group including Quakers and people of diverse beliefs, who join with millions of people around the world fighting for a just and sustainable economy.<br><br>Climate change is already causing deadly droughts, floods, and other extreme weather. If we do not take immediate action, the results could be catastrophic. At the same time, income inequality is reaching historic heights. Working class communities and communities of color are facing staggering levels of unemployment as businesses and the wealthy profit. We believe that there are better ways of doing business that reduce climate change and produce good jobs.<br><br>EQAT's actions nonviolently confront the people who benefit from the current energy system, boldly challenging them to turn away from fossil fuels. EQAT uses nonviolent direct action because it works.</blockquote>
