Our Mission

CCLI believes communities have the strength to raise our nation - the highest per capita and historical emitter of greenhouse gases - up to the forefront in helping sustain life and liberty on earth. It is incumbent on us to completely break away from the fossil fuel economy that caused and perpetuates the climate challenge threatening civilization and instead to power our society wholly with renewable energy and state of the art energy efficiency with a premium on conservation. As we carry out the new era of energy and restoration - comprehensively committing to sustainability and righting climate injustices - we will once again serve as a beacon of light in the world.

In carrying out the mission – working through community and civil society to advance bold US leadership addressing climate change and uplifting those most vulnerable – the Climate Change Leadership Institute adopts the following central organizing principles and approaches to change-making:

Education
Direct Action
Justice
Innovation
Stewardship
Conservation
