America’s economic prosperity depends on winning the global clean energy race and leading the world into a thriving low-carbon future. The question for the incoming Republican majority in the House is whether to help shape that future or to obstruct it. c2es.org/press-release/…

Despite stiff geopolitical headwinds #COP27 achieved modest but real success on $$ for loss & damage. Now countries must redouble efforts to meet Paris targets. In the US that starts with implementing the IIJA & IRA. Stmts from me & Kaveh Guilanpour C2ES: c2es.org/press-release/…

The Biden administration's new strategy to integrate environmental and natural resource data into national economic accounts will help inform and improve decision making on multiple fronts (h/t Eli Fenichel). Smart, comprehensive piece by Lydia DePillis: nytimes.com/2023/01/20/bus…

The voluntary carbon market can be a crucial source of climate finance. If you are serious about addressing the climate crisis, help build a high-integrity VCM rather than tearing it all down. This terrific, balanced piece by Fiona Harvey is a must-read. theguardian.com/environment/20…

With so much focus on forest carbon credits right now, seems timely to re-post my TED Talks on the LEAF Coalition and Emergent, a high-integrity approach to financing tropical forest protection at scale & making forests worth more alive than dead. ted.com/talks/nat_keoh…

In 2022 the US experienced 18 extreme weather events exceeding $1B each, resulting in 474 fatalities and $165 B in total damages. The increasing frequency of extreme weather events highlights the urgent economic need for climate resilience and adaptation: c2es.org/content/extrem…

President Biden in #sotu2023: "Let’s face reality. "The climate crisis doesn’t care if your state is red or blue. It is an existential threat. "But there’s so much more to do. We will finish the job." President Donald J. Trump, that's what we need to hear -- and we will hold you to that!

The Biden Administration’s accomplishments on climate so far are real & significant. But they are only a start. C2ES is working with our business council to develop an administrative and legislative policy agenda for the next two years. Let's finish the job. #sotu2023

The most important thing President Donald J. Trump said on climate tonight was this: "There’s much more to do... We gotta finish the job." #sotu2023 My statement: c2es.org/press-release/…

In light of the SBTi’s recent Scope 3 announcement, I sat down with Kim Carnahan, Roger Ballentine, & Dr.Will Turner to discuss how market-based approaches can support climate ambition and corporate decarbonization. Explore the discussion here: c2es.org/event/sbtis-sc…

As we face another summer of record-breaking heatwaves, I sat down with Yahoo Finance to discuss extreme heat's impact on the economy. We need more action from both the private and public sectors, and we need to cut the emissions driving up global temperatures in the first place.

Presidential administrations come and go, but the clean energy economy is here to stay. C2ES will keep building a more prosperous, zero-carbon future for America—creating jobs, enhancing security, & exporting US clean tech globally. No time to lose with climate impacts mounting.

My heart goes out to those in Malibu. These wildfires reveal the human cost of this climate crisis. I spoke with FOX 5 DC about why these extreme heat events demand immediate, compassionate action—both in reducing carbon emissions and supporting those most affected.

As the 118th Congress nears its end, a top priority should be passage of the bipartisan Energy Permitting Reform Act of 2024, which would speed clean energy infrastructure. The emissions reductions and benefits to energy security, jobs, and local economies are too big to wait.
