It's not fair that those who have done the least to cause climate change are facing climate impacts like these. That's why we're pushing Congress to act.

Last month, 750 CCL volunteers made permitting reform a central topic of more than 400 meetings with Congress. Now, we're continuing to see encouraging news that permitting reform will be a central topic when the Senate reconvenes after the Aug. recess.

You can’t tell from my Bsky feed, but my top priority is: building political will for climate action at the US federal level.

Over 90% of new power capacity built in the U.S. in the first half of 2026 was clean! The latest U.S. Energy Information Administration data, analyzed by @insideclimatenews.org, shows solar, wind, and battery storage are doing the heavy lifting to help America meet its energy demands.
We looked at the 368 new U.S. power plants that went online in the first half of this year, and this list tells a story of a boom in utility-scale solar, plus lots of batteries.

Lobby Day is our biggest advocacy event of the year, where hundreds of CCL volunteers come to Capitol Hill to talk about climate and clean energy.
And after all our hard work? A dance party, of course. Thanks to everyone who worked to make this year's #LobbyDay a success! #CCLinDC

In May 2026, 85% of California's energy came from clean sources, and more than half came from solar power. We love to see it!
National #permittingreform will help this trend continue and ramp up clean energy power nationwide 💪

California got more than half of its power from solar in May. That’s a massive clean energy milestone.
California was mostly solar-powered in May — a global first
No major economy had previously received over half its electricity from solar across an entire month. Thank the mild, sunny spring weather, and batteries.
