We urgently need your support now. Increasingly dire warnings from the world’s top scientists are telling us that global warming is happening at a faster rate than expected, continuing to put pressure on the Greenland ice sheet. With 23 feet of sea-level rise, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave would be waterfront property — but thankfully change is on the way. The new Congress and administration have made big promises on the campaign trail, and we are looking forward to working with them to take action on global warming that’s in line with what the science says.
CCAN is a loud, grassroots voice for real solutions to the climate crisis. Your contribution would support local organizers who are on the ground every day reaching out to the people in your community. Activists are meeting with their representatives, governors, and mayors to push this country towards a clean energy future.
Wind, solar, biofuels and other renewable energy sources could replace outdated coal plants-like the one that sits right next to the United States Capitol building. Help make this new vision of American power possible: Select CCAN when you’re making your donations through the CFC!
