We’re declaring 2021 the year of climate *action*
This year, we’ve heard a lot of climate commitments from companies big and small– pledging to everything from becoming carbon neutral to carbon negative, climate positive, and achieving net-zero carbon. Now it’s time for action. We’re ready to get to work, so how do we get there?
One of our greatest near-term opportunities is in our electricity grid. If we can reduce our greenhouse gases from our electricity, if we can stop burning fossil fuels to create electricity… then we will make a really big dent in our efforts to stop climate change.
Laura Zapata, Co-founder of Clearloop
In the United States, the sectors that emit the largest amount of carbon are transportation and electricity. As we transition to electric vehicles, more than ever the burden will be put on the electricity grid. Luckily, we have the tools to clean up our grid and power our daily activities with zero-carbon 100% renewable electricity. If companies invest in new solar energy, we can tackle the lowest hanging fruit at scale in our fight against climate change.
