The more members we have, the more effective our actions will be.

 

WHY NOW?

With your help, there is real hope that there will be a climate friendly White House and Congress ready to enact landmark energy transition legislation in 2021.

Trillions in stimulus dollars will be allocated in 2021. Those dollars need to be spent putting our workforce back to work transitioning our country to a renewable energy economy.

There are many issues competing for #1 priority in 2021. 

​

Climate must win because time is running out to stay below 1.5C

This may be the last time in a generation that trillions in federal spending will be available for transitioning our economy to renewable energy.
