ACTION PLAYBOOK

Contact Your Local Officials

Local governments are poised to lead on climate, but they can often use an extra push toward action or help with executing their climate vision.

Local officials are more accessible than state reps and members of Congress. They’re often familiar faces in the community, and you can have an outsized influence over local climate policy when you reach out to them directly.

  • Estimated time: 30 minutes. Easy!
