Overview
This grant supports the Evergreen Collaborative: a new initiative to elevate the urgency and positive opportunities of bold climate action. The collaborative’s work will focus initially on policies to drive new public investment and strong regulatory standards that advance climate solutions. This work is informed by the current economic crisis triggered by global pandemic, trade wars over oil, and the failure to invest in American infrastructure and a strong social safety net.
