Since 2019, Climate Resolve’s Ready for Tomorrow program has provided no-cost grant writing assistance to municipalities, tribal entities, and community-based organizations seeking funding for climate action. Since its inception, the program has earned a remarkable $24.4 million in awards and recently received ecoAmerica’s 2024 American Climate Leadership Award. Our program has been instrumental in implementing crucial climate-related projects, such as constructing bike lanes, planting shade trees, and transitioning municipal fleets to zero-emission buses. These initiatives have mitigated the effects of climate change and significantly improved the quality of life in disadvantaged communities. With continued support from Edison International, ServiconCares, East West Bank, City National Bank, and CIT, the Ready for Tomorrow program is announcing its continued efforts to provide no-cost grant writing assistance services across Southern California. If your community is interested in climate readiness funding, please visit the Ready for Tomorrow page and submit an intake form.

There are many tools and solutions available to help offset the global rise in temperature caused by greenhouse gas emissions. One such method that has been gaining traction in recent years is the use of solar-reflective materials in the built environment. In the latest episode of The Climate Conversation podcast, Climate Resolve Climate Solutions Officer Seth Jacobson and EESI Board Member Kurt Shickman discuss our work in launching the Shine On initiative to study the impact of albedo management of the built environment on climate change. Kurt was also an editor and a contributing author to the recently published white paper “Shine On: Increasing Local Solar Reflectance as a Means to Reduce the Greenhouse Gas Effect.” You can listen to their interview here: https://lnkd.in/gi6Xsb6n Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI)
