Upcoming Events:

Hello neighbors and everyone concerned about our rapidly changing climate.  This year we need to be more active than ever! Please join our chapter meetings each month where we discuss the economics of a carbon fee and dividend at the national level.  At the California State level, we are encouraging our Governor, Assembly and Senate to establish the infrastructure to support a state-wide migration off of fossil fuels and toward an all renewable electric environment. 

At these meetings, we also plan for various events during the year to educate others on the facts on climate change and how a carbon fee and dividend can supercharge all other efforts. We also have a continuing effort to lobby Congress climate change solutions.

These meetings are also a great opportunity to ask questions and learn how we can quickly slow down and reverse climate change for the next generation.

The Marin Chapter is excited to present the  acclaimed climate scientist Dr. Benjamin Santer, former researcher at the Lawerence Livermore National Lab, now Scholar in Residence at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

Dr. Santer has served as lead convening author of the 1995 IPCC second assessment report, which declared that “the balance of evidence suggests that there is a discernible human influence on global climate.” That was the shot heard ’round the world that launched an industrial scale campaign of doubt, denial and delay, which we’re still paying for.

We’ll also briefly update the state of legislation aimed at reducing California’s high electricity rates, then have open group discussion of how you’re all doing in light of Trump’s attack on science, and how we should react.

The Monthly National Call Saturday February 8th at 10:00am:

Each month, Citizens’ Climate Lobby supporters gather locally for a monthly meeting where we educate ourselves by listening to a guest speaker.

The February Speaker: Danielle Watson, American Forests:

Danielle Watson manages American Forests’ climate policy portfolio, focusing on programs, policies, and funding that empowers those who steward state, private, and Tribal lands. She also supports policy and government relations needs for American Forests’ Tree Equity and Resilient Forests programs.

Prior to joining American Forests, Watson worked for over a decade in the forest policy arena with the Society of American Foresters. On CCL’s February call, she will discuss American Forests’ work and their support of the new bipartisan Fix Our Forests Act.
