In 2018, Lancaster County emitted 10.5 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent and spent $2.5 billion on fossil fuels. That’s more than $6.8 million leaving our local economy every single day. We believe we can do better for our economy, the community, and the climate. By localizing climate solutions, we provide opportunities for people and communities to take action that creates a collective impact today.
That’s why we build nonpartisan partnerships that drive immediate local climate action to create resilient, thriving communities. By working together across sectors and around shared goals, we can turn present-day action into meaningful, lasting change.
The projections for a bleak future are not inevitable. We believe the possibility of solving and adapting to climate change gives us hope— and that by starting locally, we can build a proven, replicable model for regional climate action that regenerates ecosystems, strengthens local economies, and empowers every community to thrive.
