Overview
The Climate and Community Project is fiscally sponsored by the Tides Center. The project is a network of academics and policy experts conducting research at the climate and inequality nexus. This grant will fund a project to explore the potential of community benefit agreements (CBAs) to support a just transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. The goal is to produce a policy-oriented report and an environmental justice CBA toolkit that will examine what kinds of benefits negotiated agreements may offer to frontline communities, as well as potential shortcomings and unintended consequences of such accords.
