New England Climate Coalition

The New England Climate Coalition is a group of over 150 state, local, regional and national environmental, public health, municipal and religious organizations dedicated to achieving global warming pollution reductions in the region.

They are working to:
• ensure the northeast governors develop a strong cap on power plant global warming pollution through the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (www.rggi.org);
• hold the New England Governors accountable to their 2001 commitment to cut global warming pollution in the region 10% by 2020 and 75% over the long term; and
• build support for the region to adopt policies that reduce global warming pollution from the transportation sector, which is the biggest and fastest growing source of pollution in the region.

Take Action

Legislators, governors and regulators across the region are discussing, debating and deciding about global warming policy right now. Make sure your voice is heard! Visit their website to learn what you can do to help.
