WebsiteTo decarbonize at the speed and scale required to address the climate crisis, we need bold public policy to accelerate change.
Corporations play a huge role in climate policy action – or inaction. They often are too narrowly focused on reducing emissions in their own operations, and fail to use their powerful influence to advocate on climate policy.
We need a movement that raises the expectations for the corporate sector and we believe that when employees speak, companies act.
Our areas of focus are:
– Activating employees who can catalyze bold advocacy from their employers and create a tipping point for policy change.
– Educating executives by providing targeted education on key issues including use of their lobbying influence and public statements to help enact pro-climate policy.
– Shining the spotlight by harnessing external attention to put pressure on corporate leadership.
– Keeping score by tracking corporate and trade-association climate policy engagement.
ClimateVoice is led by Co-Executive Directors Deborah McNamara and Bill Weihl – the organization’s founder.
