CCL’s Climate Solutions
Citizens’ Climate Lobby policy agenda covers the following policy areas: Carbon Pricing, Healthy Forests, Building Electrification and Efficiency, and Permitting Reform.
Price on Carbon
Americans shouldn’t have to live with price shocks and energy inflation. A carbon fee and dividend (carbon cashback) will drive energy innovation, giving every American community access to abundant, affordable clean energy at a predictable price. Learn more.
Healthy Forests
Forests are critical climate solutions as they capture and store carbon from the air. All efforts to preserve and restore forests will allow this natural solution to expand and increase its carbon sequestration capabilities.
Building Electrification and Efficiency
“Waste not, want not.”
By increasing the efficiency of our buildings (electrification is a big part of this), we reduce the amount of energy consumed. This allows for money savings and the reduction of carbon pollution.
Clean Energy Permitting Reform
Reforming our permitting processes will allow for the acceleration of the expansion of our clean energy economy. By speeding up the review and approvals for solar, wind, hydroelectric, storage, geothermal, transmission lines, and more, we can shorten development timelines.
