The Green-Collar Job Campaign

We believe California must lead the nation in creating a thriving, equitable, and green economy that’s strong enough to lift people out of poverty. The Green-Collar Jobs Campaign is helping build California’s movement for green jobs that truly provide opportunity for all. We advocate for public policy that creates good, green jobs, especially for low-income communities and people of color.

Overall, this will be a 25% reduction from business-as-usual. California was the first state in the nation to make a plan to fight climate change and shift to a low-carbon economy. Read more »
