Encouraging news about a #PriceOnPollution!

@business reports that @SenateFinance is considering a #PriceOnPollution with rebates to Americans as part of the budget reconciliation package.

Quick 🧵 about why we LOVE this news:

CCL Metrowest member Geri Blitzman and her daughter Michelle spend a Sunday in downtown Boston encouraging climate-based conversations by strolling with homemade signs.

#Climatechange is the other curve we've failed to flatten, and its devastating impact will be felt until we drastically reduce carbon emissions.

Breaking: A bipartisan group of govs from 15 states & DC committed to zero-out toxic air pollution from medium- and heavy-duty trucks and buses by 2050! https://t.co/9v0oeNNAH0 via @nrdc

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Climate change, pollution, coronavirus...what do they have in common? All disproportionately affect the marginalized, the vulnerable, the poor; those already suffering, already disadvantaged, already oppressed; exacerbating injustice, racism, and poverty. https://t.co/FLrn2QULth

Great meeting yesterday with @RepDonBacon and his team looking at wide range of climate change solutions. Thank you Congressman and team for the thoughtful discussion!

[CCL Canada @CitizensLobbyCa]

OUR FOCUS: improving and protecting Canada's carbon pricing policy. "All politics is local" but at the same time "Everything is connected." Finding the balance point is easy. The key is not to waste energy and be clear about what you support and what you lobby for specifically.

Everyone, you have the RIGHT to clean, safe, and carbon neutral spaces!

@CCLFresno Contacted our elected officials to encourage cleaner school buses!

School strike for climate week 83. It’s summer break but the climate crisis doesn’t take a break so neither do we. #ClimateStrikeOnline #FridaysForFuture #SchoolStrike4Climate #FlattenTheCurve #StayAtHome

https://t.co/zjO2mV0u99 A really fascinating look at what cooperation between different groups of people can do.

What sank the Atlantic Coast Pipeline? It wasn’t just environmentalism. https://t.co/yuSPDlKmus

[CCL Triangle Chapter @CCLTriangle]

Thank you @robyntomlin, @schisenhall and the other editorial board members for this opinion piece.
Let us also salute and thank the Indigenous communities at the frontline who made this win happen!

There will be #NoACP build and this is a great outcome to a 6-year struggle to stop it. "In the longer term, it would commit utilities to supporting fracking and burning natural gas for decades, even as climate change is accelerating."

[Citizens' Climate Lobby @citizensclimate]

Another great deep dive from CCLer Brad Rouse on how carbon pricing can substantially reduce emissions.

"It’s a big help if we can put fossil fuel and zero-carbon electricity on an even footing."
