In 2017, climate and clean energy successes will be driven at the local, state, and regional levels. In the months ahead we must be ready to move forward boldly, and with steadfast ambition. Here are some simple ways you can help.
It has become obvious that we need to find new and better ways to align good climate policy with fairness, inclusion, and solutions that work for everyone. If we don’t, fossil fuel interests will fend off the transition we need by capitalizing on the same insecurity and fear that won Trump the White House.
Florida solar advocates battle misleading ballot measure, climate change to harm subsistence farmers worldwide, new wind turbines have built-in pumped hydro storage, and more news of the week in climate and clean energy.
The bulk of Washington and Oregon’s carbon pollution comes from transportation. We've got (mostly) clean electricity—now let's electrify everything, including cars and trucks.
New carbon math says climate goals can’t be met if humanity burns all the oil, gas, and coal in existing wells and mines, let alone develops new ones—and more news of the week in climate and clean energy.
