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.
Over 300 Virginians joined a statewide CCAN Action Fund . They want action!

A safe, clean, quiet neighbor for the old BASF site ⚡ Pelican Storage is a proposed energy storage project on industrially zoned, former brownfield land in James City County. It's a low-impact, non-polluting use designed to meet strict fire and safety codes, and it would strengthen grid reliability and bring $90M+ for schools, roads, and first responders.Have questions? Join our lunchtime Zoom Thu, Nov. 12 at noon. We'll answer them, then help you speak up with the Board of Supervisors.RSVP: www.mobilize.us/greenlightaction/event/1#JamesCityCountyC#Virginia #EnergyStorager#CleanEnergyl#GridReliabilitye#PelicanStoragecanStorage
