We seem to be relying on the youth to save the planet, and with their help and the help of organizations like Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL) there is hope. CCL is nonpartisan nonprofit environmental organization, which is committed to building the political will for the climate solutions we all need, as it empowers citizens to talk with neighbors, friends, and local officials about how national climate action can help ensure a healthy future while strengthening the American economy. By focusing on shared values rather than partisan divides, CCL builds relationships with community leaders, federal elected officials and with Congress, always starting from a place of respect, gratitude, and appreciation. My guests on this episode are Frankie and Matthew who are members of the Westchester Chapter of Citizens Climate Lobby, and they represent the terrific things that the younger generations are doing to lead the way to protect the environment. We talk about some of the campaigns of CCL which include Carbon Fee and Dividend a/k/a Carbon Cash Back, lobbying for climate legislation, external collaboration with other environmental groups and more.
