The movement to #ElectrifyEverything is picking up steam! Join our national call April 9 when we'll talk with Keishaa Austin from Rewiring America about how we can kick the fossil fuel habit.

We consumers are conditioned to feel carbon monoxide poisoning is a natural risk to using #NaturalGas or other #FossilFuels in our homes. The #ElectrifyEverything alternatives perform better in every respect with added benefit of assuring a livable world. youtu.be/gZp5jAg4-PM

Fantastic op-ed from CEOs in Utah arguing for a #PriceOnCarbon: "If policymakers incentivize the market to give us clean air and zero-carbon energy, then the market will deliver... One possible option to reduce emissions is a carbon dividend approach." deseret.com/opinion/2022/3…

The #ElectrifyEverything movement would have no chance if #RenewableEnergy sources didn't out perform their #FossilFuels counterparts in every respect including health, safety, & economics. Like, how many electrical spills have we had? A livable world is a great side benefit too.

It's June 21st and here's Citizens' Climate Lobby Middle Tennessee Chapter's #ShowYourStripes submission. Anyone going outside today can identify with this graph and summer has just begun. Find your graphics: ShowYourStripes.info Ed Hawkins (University of Reading).

Thanks to Shea Throckmorton, aide to Senator Bill Hagerty for meeting with Citizens' Climate Lobby volunteers from Tennessee Citizens’ Climate Lobby Middle Tennessee and talking about how a #carbon_border_adjustment would be good for U.S. business and hurt China and Russia.

Many thanks to Senator Bill Hagerty and Senator Sen. Marsha Blackburn as well as Andrew Hogin, Shea Throckmorton, and Stephen Voljavec of their staffs for welcoming Tennessee volunteers for Citizens' Climate Lobby to #TennesseeTuesday at the Capitol.

Thank you to our senators Sen. Marsha Blackburn Senator Bill Hagerty for Tennessee Tuesday at the Citizens' Climate Lobby June conference and to your staffs who met with our lobbying teams after the conference to discuss ideas around #climateaction.

Thank you to Kim Pate for meeting with CCL Canada volunteers to discuss strategies for lowering Canada's GHG emissions, such as reducing our use of the anesthetic gas desflurane in operating rooms and phasing out natural gas in electricity generation.

Remember budget reconciliation? It’s happening & climate is part of it! The Inflation Reduction Act is a HUGE step forward in the fight against climate change & we need to make sure it passes by ☎️ calling every Democratic office on the Hill. ☎️ bit.ly/3cEfYyL

Interesting thread on a paper that looks at political support for a carbon tax accompanied by a rebate. Spoiler: Giving people money helps. #PriceOnCarbon

Waking up to more good news this morning: The last passenger to get on the #InflationReductionAct train, @SenatorSinema, has climbed aboard. Let the voting begin for biggest #Climate legislation Congress has ever done! Nick Sobczyk Jeremy Dillon eenews.net/articles/sinem…

Great op-ed in the @tennessean about a climate solution with potential to get Republican support: Carbon border adjustment mechanisms. "If we do not initiate our own CBAM, we may place ourselves at a disadvantage when our trade partners do." tennessean.com/story/opinion/…

This report by the International Energy Agency shows the extent to which the inevitable transition to renewables and #ElectricVehicles has already slowed the global rise in CO2 emissions. For Citizens' Climate Lobby volunteers it is about acceleration. Let's keep up the work! iea.org/news/defying-e…

Thank you staff of Rep. Mark Green for giving our  Citizens’ Climate Lobby Middle Tennessee volunteers the opportunity to build relationships that will change the world! Citizens' Climate Lobby fall lobbying campaign is #GrassrootsClimate in action!

Time to get energized and inspired at CCL’s June conference in DC! Our chapter has launched a gofund.me/e46be987 account for those of us unable to make it in person to help offset the expense of fellow chapter members who wish to attend. Let’s finish the job! #CCL2023

The Middle Tennessee Chapter of Citizens' Climate Lobby had a great time writing postcards for the Environmental Voter Project project to remind environmentalists to vote in November!

Our pets have as much stake in a livable world as we do. That’s why they are helping the Middle Tennessee Chapter of Citizens' Climate Lobby volunteers write postcards for the Environmental Voter Project project to remind environmentalists to vote in November!
