THE ALLIANCE IS A UNIQUE, SINGLE-PURPOSE ORGANIZATION CREATED FOR THE PURPOSE OF IGNITING PUBLIC ACTION TO SOLVE THE CLIMATE CRISIS. THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY IS IN AGREEMENT THAT WE ONLY HAVE A SHORT TIME TO ACT IN ORDER FOR THE NEXT GENERATION TO INHERIT A HEALTHY EARTH. HOWEVER, WHILE PUBLIC AWARENESS IS NOW HIGH, CLIMATE ACTIVISTS SHOULD TAKE LITTLE COMFORT - URGENCY AND A SENSE OF SOLVABILITY REMAIN ALARMINGLY LOW. WITHOUT PUBLIC SUPPORT TO SOLVE THE CLIMATE CRISIS, U.S. LEADERSHIP WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE DOMESTICALLY AND NEGOTIATION OF AN EFFECTIVE INTERNATIONAL TREATY WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE. THE ALLIANCE MISSION IS TO PERSUADE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND PEOPLE ELSEWHERE IN THE WORLD, OF THE IMPORTANCE AND URGENCY OF ADOPTING AND IMPLEMENTING EFFECTIVE AND COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTIONS FOR THE CLIMATE CRISIS. 0 0 13882601 3839869 THE ALLIANCE FOR CLIMATE PROTECTION LAUNCHED THE REPOWER AMERICA CAMPAIGN TO GALVANIZE THE AMERICAN PUBLIC AROUND A BOLD NEW CLEAN ENERGY PLAN AND A REVITALIZED NATIONAL ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WILL JUMPSTART OUR ECONOMY AND CREATE MILLIONS OF JOBS; HELP END OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL; REWARD INNOVATION AND JOB CREATION, NOT POLLUTERS; AND REDUCE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND SLOW THE THREAT OF CLIMATE CHANGE. 690743 REPOWER AT HOME IS A PROGRAM OF THE ALLIANCE, CREATED TO BUILD A NATIONAL MOVEMENT OF COMMUNITY LEADERS TO EDUCATE THEIR NEIGHBORS, COLLEAGUES AND FRIENDS ABOUT HOW ACCESSIBLE, SIMPLE AND COST-EFFECTIVE IT CAN BE TO IMPROVE THE ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF THEIR HOMES AND COMMUNAL SPACES, WHILE ALSO MOBILIZING ENERGY EFFICIENCY ACTIONS THAT WILL IMPACT THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. 1099425 40650 THE CLIMATE PROJECT (TCP) WAS FOUNDED IN 2006.
