We're working to rapidly reduce climate pollution at scale, starting in California.
About us
The Climate Center is a climate and energy policy nonprofit working to rapidly reduce climate pollution at scale, starting in California. We believe in thriving, healthy communities. We envision a future where everyone in California enjoys clean air and water, renewable and reliable energy, healthy food, thriving nature, and more. California has the tools and know-how to make this vision a reality — if our elected leaders act with the urgency the climate crisis demands. California must put policies in place as soon as possible to accelerate equitable climate action, putting us on track to remove more climate pollution than we emit while securing resilient communities for all by 2030. That’s how we’ll keep our friends and loved ones safe from worsening climate disasters, create millions of family-sustaining jobs, and give everyone the chance to thrive in the clean energy economy. Working together, we will ensure California leads once again toward a climate-safe future for all.

We’re voting yes on Prop 4. Here’s why. 1️⃣ Prop 4 tackles our most urgent climate needs today, before the damage becomes too costly. 2️⃣ Prop 4 will help prevent wildfires, provide clean water, and protect California’s nature. 3️⃣ 40% of the funds will go to frontline communities who are hit hardest by climate disasters. Need more information? Check out The Climate Center CEO Ellie Cohen's op-ed to learn why we’re encouraging our community to vote yes. https://lnkd.in/gznezsf3

This is an interview with me and Sabrina Jacobs on KPFA on some of the most important climate legislation that was recently signed by the Governor, including the Polluters Pay Package of bills aimed at making the oil industry accountable for their mess, and a historic law supporting bidirectional charging capabilities for EVs. And also a shout out to Prop 4. https://lnkd.in/gZ-MUgvb

⚡ ICYMI: Our sponsored bill SB 59 — authored by Senator Nancy Skinner (pictured below with The Climate Center CEO Ellie Cohen) — was signed into law last week! SB 59 is designed to prevent power outages, lower energy bills, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels by enabling bidirectional charging in electric vehicles. 🔌🚗

See my latest post: Big #Utilities are Killing Affordable #CleanEnergy California Governor Gavin Newsom championed some pioneering climate policy but vetoed #SB1374, which would have supported solar rooftops for schools. The bill was opposed by corporate utilities. #EnergyJustice #ClimateActionNow

✨ BREAKING: SB 59, first-in-the-nation bidirectional EV charging bill, has been signed into law! We've been hard at work alongside our cosponsors Union of Concerned Scientists and Nuvve Holding Corp. to secure this victory. After another summer of deadly heat waves and wildfires, Californians will soon be able to rely on electric vehicle batteries to avoid blackouts instead of dirty fossil fuels. Thanks to The Climate Center community for your advocacy, Office of California Governor Gavin Newsom for signing this foundational bill, and Senator Skinner for your climate leadership. We did it! 🎉🚗⚡
