Climate Players

Americans from every walk of life want to solve climate. Read about why climate action is for everyone's benefit, no matter who you are or what you do.

    With innovative design, the building sector is on the brink of profound transformation: immediately cutting 50% of the energy buildings use.
  • Big Business.sized.jpg
    When big business gets behind federal action on climate change -- as it has -- it means reducing emissions is what will keep the economy humming. The signal has started to register in D.C.

    The sector is poised to supply 600 gigawatts of electricity by 2025 -- all we are going to need. Here's where to find the 21st century's new jobs, economic growth and national security.
  • People of Faith.sized.jpg
    For decades environmentalists have provided the lone voice warning the world about global warming. Finally, it seems, their call has been heard by everyone else.

    The fact that America has any political progress to show on global warming is thanks to its governors. With their action, they have proved three surprising things.

    Hunters and anglers will be the first to tell you that something is amiss in the great outdoors. They don't need scientists to tell them what they are witnessing first hand, and they want it stopped.
  • Investors.sized.jpg
    Global warming is putting the accumulated wealth of the entire globe at risk. That's why investors representing $4 trillion in assets have asked Congress for mandatory limits on carbon emissions.
  • Mayors.sized.jpg
    More than 700 US mayors have signed on to the Kyoto Protocol in an outpouring of historically unprecedented municipal protest -- against the White House which rejected the treaty.

    Faith has been at the foundation of every great American social movement. Now, concern for the poor and God's Creation is providing the impetus for a new brand of religious activism.
  • Scientists.sized.jpg
    We've got only 10 years to act on global warming or face unwelcome planetary consequences. It's the unequivocal scientific view that requires immediate climate action in response.

    Keeping the oil flowing through the globe's geographic choke points has been a long, dangerous and expensive assignment. Global warming is provoking a rethink of this mission, and much besides.
  • Young People.sized.jpg
    They're demanding that their universities become models of carbon neutrality, seeds of broader change. Now they're bringing their message of a sustainable future off-campus and to the voting booth.
