From the mountains to the sea, everyone in our state and beyond has the right to breathe clean, healthy air. Together, we can fight for this right and make a difference. So, join us by taking action in any way you can.
On December 30th, 2022, the NC Utilities Commission released the inaugural Carbon Plan to decarbonize our state by 70% by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050. The Commission reaffirmed the State’s commitment to reaching those goals. However, it also allows Duke Energy to continue using methane gas to “preserve reliability and cut carbon emissions.” The problem is methane is worse than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping pollutant.
Tell Governor Cooper to address climate change and end North Carolina’s reliance on fossil fuels now!
If government representatives don’t know that climate change and air pollution issues are important to North Carolinians, they don’t know to prioritize it in the legislature. Tell your representatives that slowing climate change and fighting for cleaner air is important to you and to take action where they can on these issues to protect our planet.
Improving our environment will require all of us working together. Every action, big or small, makes a difference. Join us in fighting climate change with these daily actions. Together, we can do it!
