Home of CCL Miami (the ground-zero chapter)

Citizens' Climate Lobby is:

• 100K+ supporters in 500+ chapters dedicated to political will for a stable climate.
• CCL advocates for the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act - H.R. 763 introduced in the 116th Congress on Jan 24, 2019.
  • most aggressive climate legislation ever introduced in the U.S. About HR763
  • only policy on track with IPCC recommendations for the drawdown of GHG emissions
  • has built-in adjustability to ensure a 90% GHG drawdown by 2050.
  • pays American families a monthly check to reduce emissions.
  
  
• Force the few or incentivize the many?
  HR763 far exceeds Clean Power Plan and Paris targets.
  
  Command & control regulations simply do not have the deep, far-ranging effect that a price would, to affect decisions at every level.
  Regulations don't cross borders. Prices do.
  Translation: For a number of reasons, a carbon fee beats regulations hands down for global greenhouse gas emissions. Here are two.
