We're Building a Movement To Fight Climate Change
Across Our Region and Beyond.
Should we reflect sunlight away from the Earth? With global temperatures spiking ever higher, CCAN supports careful research into geoengineering, following the lead of the world’s top scientists.
The D.C. Council can stop ballooning utility costs for residents by passing common sense ratepayer protections, stopping Project Pipes for good, and piloting networked geothermal to kickstart our transition of dangerous methane gas.
This fall, we’re spreading the word about the impacts and costs of extreme weather events on our communities by hosting a series of events in a statewide “Make Polluters Pay” tour.
CCAN Action Fund released a new statewide poll, conducted by Global Strategy Group, that shows a whopping 92% of likely voters believe state lawmakers are failing to properly manage the rapid growth of data centers in the Commonwealth. They want action!

Last week, CCAN hosted a solar reflection methods (SRM) Research Hub Crawl at Climate Week NYC on Wednesday. Many thanks to the scientists, policymakers, civil society organizations, and other climate leaders who joined us. While SRM is not a substitute for rapidly cutting greenhouse gas emissions, participants explored how research, public engagement, oversight, and governance should shape any consideration of the field.
