#CCL2023 : This is what we do - prepare, practice, and bring our polite asks to offices on Capitol Hill in person. #GrassrootsClimate This is Citizens' Climate Lobby. Join us.

Even after all the climate progress the U.S. has made this year, we could still really use a #PriceOnPollution.
A carbon tax would supercharge the effect of the #IRA’s subsidies, shifting our economy toward low-carbon goods & services even faster.

The rapid recent advancement of climate attribution science is providing us a critical new perspective to understand how our continued addition of warming gasses to the atmosphere is affecting our lives today, and not something we can leave for our grandchildren to deal with.

TY @wusa9’s @MiriWeather for bringing another children’s health concern to the spotlight:
"With children's learning, they are more impacted by having more severe allergies, more recurrent sinus infections, and sleep is also impacted" - Dr. @NeeluTummala

The U.S. is getting nervous as Europe unveils its carbon border tax. We can calm everyone's nerves by having the U.S. enact a #PriceOnCarbon, the most essential tool for getting emissions reductions.

.@suepalkafox5dc @ABC7BillKelly @TenaciousTopper @dougkammerer – many thanks to you and your teams for providing great forecasts and reporting during the recent heavy rains. Based on the worrying trends shown below it’s clear that our area will continue to see more such events.

Good story and thread from @SiegelScribe on today's press conference with @RepTedDeutch and others about the Energy Innovation & Carbon Dividend Act.
#ClimateChange
NEW in DAILY ON ENERGY: Pro-carbon tax House Democrats led by @RepTedDeutch make their move to push Biden to include a carbon price as part of its green infrastructure package, going against the grain of their party washex.am/3dGlkXi

Instead of a war on Coca-Cola, how about a war CO2?
✅ Restorative agriculture to deposit CO2 into the ground, where it belongs.
✅ Carbon fee & dividend to encourage migration to green energy and return $ to taxpayers, where it belongs.

This VA-11 constituent for carbon-dividend legislation, our preferred tool for the emissions reduction toolbox, is appreciative of our Congressman’s sponsorship of practical solutions!
Thank you, @GerryConnolly for meeting with @citizensclimate volunteers from your district yesterday! 🙏
We applaud your strong climate leadership and your support for a #PriceOnPollution. 👏👏👏

.@POTUS Biden,
A carbon fee & dividend means that the cash money goes directly into people’s pockets every month to spend as they see fit, helping low and middle income Americans. Put a #PriceOnPollution! It's good for households & good for America.

.@VP Harris,
The Pollution that adds to #ClimateChange exacerbates health conditions like asthma. A #PriceOnPollution will have multiplier benefits that will also the improve the comorbidities that harm #COVID19 patients.

Strong policy at the federal level can help Virginia meet its ambitious climate goals. The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, cosponsored by @GerryConnolly, is a smart approach because it tackles emissions at the source and puts money back in people's pockets.

Probably biggest #climate news of year: President Xi says #China will aim to be carbon neutral by 2060 & peak emissions by 2030. Need more details & clear peaking date... but China's zero-carbon future is coming into focus! kfgo.com/2020/09/22/china-pl… #ParisAgreement #ClimateWeekNYC

Look it’s not that I’m unaware of how unconstitutional and authoritarian this Executive Order is - it’s just that he’s pretty clearly doing this particular unconstitutional authoritarian thing because he doesn’t want people talking about his botched pandemic response.
