Policy Topics

Accelerate the transition to clean electricity through renewable energy, grid modernization, energy storage, utility regulation, and electricity-sector emissions policies.

Cut emissions across multiple parts of the economy, from climate targets and carbon pricing to procurement and economy-wide planning.

Build a cleaner transportation system through vehicle electrification, efficiency and fuel switching, public transit, active transportation, and land-use planning.

Reduce emissions from homes and commercial buildings through electrification, reduced reliance on fossil fuels, energy efficiency, building codes, and appliance standards.

Address difficult-to-eliminate emissions through policies governing carbon capture, utilization and storage, carbon removal, and the responsible deployment of these technologies.

Decarbonize manufacturing and industrial activity through cleaner production, efficiency, emissions standards, procurement, and emerging technologies.

Cut methane, refrigerants, fluorinated gases, and other potent climate pollutants through targeted standards, monitoring, and leak prevention.

Reduce the climate impact of the production, delivery, and use of fuels through clean fuel standards, alternative fuels, electrification, and related measures to phase down fossil fuel dependence.

Establish the legal, governance, planning, and analytical frameworks that enable effective climate action.

Ensure climate policy advances environmental justice by directing benefits and investment to historically disadvantaged communities, reducing disproportionate harms, and strengthening community participation in decision-making.
