We've partnered with Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) to release a handbook detailing five transformative actions state and regional governments can take to limit the effects of climate change while bringing other beneficial impacts to society.

Clean electricity: Renewables are cost-effective investments and clean electricity is fundamental to a carbon-free society.

Carbon-free buildings: Construct and upgrade our buildings to be all-electric and efficient, which will also create healthier, comfortable places to live and work.

Healthy transportation: By creating better mobility options and electrifying vehicles, air pollution can be reduced while giving people more choices for transportation.

Innovative industry: With a clean energy supply, industry can move to electric power while also creating solutions to drive a clean energy economy.

Sustainable land use: Preserve and enhance the natural resources that create beautiful places, economic opportunities and essential carbon sinks.
