California is at a crossroads in the climate fight. As a clean energy pioneer, the state made history in 2012 by launching its cap-and-trade program. With the program set to expire in 2030, the oil industry is doing everything it can to weaken the reauthorization progress. Meanwhile, frontline communities continue to bear the brunt of pollution and climate-driven disasters. As the legislature works to extend the program through 2045, environmental justice advocates are mobilizing to ensure that equity, not industry influence, shapes California’s clean energy future. Funds raised will support additional resources for a communications campaign led by environmental justice advocates.

Extreme Weather Survivors (EWS) is a national network of people directly impacted by wildfires, floods, hurricanes, and other climate-fueled disasters—92 million Americans each year. Despite this escalating crisis, climate change remains dangerously underestimated by the public and under-prioritized by policymakers. EWS is changing that. Their work expands the reach of the climate movement by engaging people far beyond its traditional base and by ensuring those with lived experience help shape the policies that affect their communities. By empowering survivors as trusted messengers through trauma-informed support and advocacy training, EWS is building a powerful force for change—one that shifts public perception, drives bold policy, and brings new voices into the climate movement. EWS is seeking support for their work to make polluters pay in California.

EnviroVoters is seeking support to pass a number of urgent climate bills that would make Big Oil pay for the damage their pollution has caused, including disasters like the LA wildfires. These bills shift financial responsibility from frontline communities to corporate polluters and mark a bold step toward long overdue climate justice. This is part of our larger effort to build momentum for polluters pay efforts including insurance affordability and cap and invest. With a proven track record, including the success of SB 253, EnviroVoters brings deep policy expertise, strong coalitions, and a clear strategy to win.

Land & Liberty, part of the Clean Grid Alliance, boasts a highly experienced team with a two-decade track record of effectively navigating utility-scale siting conflicts across several states, including Minnesota, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. Their renewable energy siting efforts are distinctly concentrated on the more conservative, rural regions within these states, acknowledging that these areas hold the greatest technical potential for renewable energy projects while concurrently harboring the lowest levels of public support for the fundamental reasons behind transitioning to carbon-free sources of electricity.

Greenlight America is focused on leveraging local grassroots support with the goal of winning local clean energy siting and permitting fights. The U.S. needs to build 6,000 clean energy facilities over the next decade, almost 2 per day, as well as more than 10,000 miles of transmission lines to hit emission reduction goals. Local opposition is the biggest obstacle to these projects, and there are few coordinated efforts to engage supporters as advocates for these projects. Greenlight is building a scalable, nationwide clean energy campaign hub to work with partner organizations, engage and mobilize local residents, and win project approvals.
