The phrase "think global, act local" is a call to arms of local activism. It is probably most strongly associated with environmental issues, but it has been used in many other policy realms as well, including trade, immigration, transportation, healthcare, and education.

Mayor Marilyn Strickland argues that there has been a shift from national to local governments such as Tacoma in seeking progress on these issues.
