Overview
This grant will support NRDC’s U.S. Clean Energy Program, which employs legal, policy, and communications efforts to reduce global warming emissions and other harmful impacts of mining, drilling, and burning fossil fuels. In the United States, the program will focus predominately on implementing carbon pollution standards at the state level, ensuring the responsible development of large-scale renewable energy, and reducing methane emissions from oil and gas production. NRDC will also conduct a comprehensive planning effort to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion within the organization.
