Our young state has been honored to have founders like Vic walk among us. Great people who thought big, acted boldly, and loom large. We are now in a new era without those who laid the state’s foundation.
Building our future requires remembering our past.
Rest in peace, Vic.
Taking aim at the United States and an “irresponsible lifestyle” with some of the world’s highest carbon emissions per capita, Pope Francis on Wednesday doubled down on his earlier call for urgent action to tackle climate change.

Global investment in clean energy is on course to rise to $1.7 trillion in 2023.
And for the first time ever, solar is set to attract more capital than oil production this year.
This reflects the changing tide in the energy world → https://t.co/x5cNTtCADa
Nearly 40 years ago, Ronald Reagan delivered a State of the Union address, making a statement about the environment that CCL Conservatives uphold to this day:
"Preservation of our environment is not a liberal or conservative challenge, it's common sense."

A new Boston skyscraper has a climate-friendly claim to fame. Last week, it became the largest office space in the world certified to the extremely energy-efficient "Passive House" standards — and the first skyscraper in the U.S. to earn the label. https://t.co/hCdArBXXvQ
.@JohnSmillie42 was experiencing climate anxiety, so he decided to do something about it. He first focused on volunteering with @citizensclimate and @LWV and decarbonizing his family’s home. Now, he helps nonprofits tap Inflation Reduction Act incentives.https://t.co/y80u1L9JRj
"For decades, scientists and economists have concluded that #pricingcarbon is critical to reducing global carbon-dioxide emissions fast enough to combat irreversible #climatechange."
"By now, there is abundant proof that pricing carbon dramatically lowers emissions and even economically benefits the societies that do it."
Time for a #PriceOnPollution!

To where? The moon? There's no spot on Earth that is 'safe' from the effects of climate change. It's pouring rain in Alaska, but a few summers ago we were sweltering and coughing from drought and forest fires. Best work to curtail carbon emissions and decarbonize where you are.
This is huge! CCI enthusiastically supports the #AfricaClimateSummit23 call for a global #PriceOnCarbon. Check out our press release. It's time to make polluters pay!

Of course you feel sad. Of course you have anxiety. Of course you're worried about your family. Of course you feel concern for humanity. My op-ed for @CNN looks at why acknowledging our feelings is necessary right now #attunement#covid19#climatechange https://t.co/5M8tKjyVtz
