In Congress Henry Waxman and Edward Markey introduced a discussion draft of the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 to create a renewable energy standard, and the youth of the US stand ready to help lobby for a strong bill for clean energy.
On Saturday April 18, the advocacy group Focus the Nation is coordinating a Nationwide Town Hall on America's Clean Energy Future in more than 200 Congressional districts.
On April 22, Earth Day 2009, hundreds of communities across the country will participate in the National Conversation on Climate Action. This initiative will engage thousands of people in discussions about making the most of climate action opportunities at the local level.
Based in Portland, Oregon, Focus the Nation works to empower young leaders to accelerate the transition to a just and prosperous clean energy future.
