25 years ago, we got our start advocating for California's Clean Car Standard. What was obvious back then is even more clear now. Reducing 🚘&🛻 emissions is vitally important for every industry as we explain in our latest blog: e2.org/blog/epa-rev...

What happens when an administration makes it difficult to build the cheapest and fastest energy source available? Investors cancel projects and hardworking Americans lose out on good-paying job opportunities.

It's simple; the more greenhouse gas we emit, the more likely we are to have increasingly dangerous climate disasters that cost companies and consumers more money to recover from. As Climate Central beautifully charts...(1/2)

Yes, we're still thinking about the EPA's decision to repeal the endangerment finding for GHG emissions and eliminate clean vehicle standards. A baffling move that means higher temperatures and smaller paychecks for you: e2.org/blog/epa-rev...

📈 "The U.S. Department of Energy says data centers used about 4.4% of total U.S. electricity in 2023 and could reach 6.7% to 12% by 2028." ☀️🔋This is a chance to cement clean energy as the cheapest, fastest, and safest source of reliable electricity for #datacenters. www.forbes.com/sites/monica...

Investing in clean energy is good for business and good for America as Michael Timberlake eloquently puts it. So, when lawmakers eliminate incentives to invest in clean energy, the private sector simply spends that money in other countries.
