is real and its environmental and economic consequences will be
profound. But in California it’s not just the natural climate that is
changing. The state’s social and political climate is changing, too.
To meet the unprecedented challenge these dramatic changes
present, it is imperative that policy makers at every level of state
and local government join with environmental, business, labor, public
health, education, and social equity leaders to devise and implement
solutions that will ensure long-lasting environmental protections for
our local communities, our natural places, and the resources that
sustain our health, economy, and quality of life.
 As a true “league” of local and
statewide environmental organizations,
PCL has been on the frontlines of the
battle for environmental protection in
California for more than forty years. We
know that climate change is a serious
threat to our future and that the countless environmental challenges
we now face will either contribute to or will be exacerbated by global
warming. Now is the time to address these challenges. Now is the
time to change the climate in our statewide, regional, and local
policymaking.
We can’t afford a political climate that is not fully committed to
sustainability, economic prosperity, and social equality. On April 29th,
join PCL, its affiliated organizations, and committed individuals from
around California as we begin laying the foundation for a program
of change!
Come see a new converted plug-in Prius hybrid! These prototypes get 100+ miles to the gallon of gasoline, plus cleaner, cheaper, domestic electricity.
