Can you imagine a safer, healthier fossil fuel-free future filled with more trees and cleaner ways to get around for your children and grandchildren? So can we. And we’re working together to make it happen.
To avoid the most catastrophic effects of climate change, from stronger storms to more frequent floods and worsening wildfires, it is clear that we need to reduce our reliance on dirty fossil fuels such as methane, keep our old trees standing tall and transition to a zero-waste economy powered by clean, renewable energy. Fortunately, global warming solutions are all around us — we just need to use them.
Did you know?
In 2021, 4 in 10 Americans lived in counties that were hit with a climate-related disaster.
What We're Doing
It’s clearer than ever that we no longer need to rely on dirty fossil fuels. We have an opportunity to repower our society and save our planet by urging our decision-makers to find common ground on climate change and reduce our country’s global warming emissions.

New report shows a shocking amount of pollution from gas-powered leaf blowers, lawn mowers in Oregon
A new report out today shows that gas-powered lawn mowers, string trimmers, leaf blowers, chainsaws and other garden equipment generate a large amount of pollution and noise.
New report shows shocking amount of pollution from gas-powered leaf blowers, lawn mowers in Oregon
With fall upon us and leaf blowers at full blast in neighborhoods across the state, noise and gas fumes are filling the air. Lawn Care Goes Electric: Why it’s time to switch to a new generation of clean, quiet electric lawn equipment, a new report by Environment Oregon Research & Policy Center and OSPIRG Foundation, shows that gas-powered lawn mowers, string trimmers, leaf blowers, chainsaws and other garden equipment generate a large amount of pollution and noise.
Leaf blowers aren’t just noisy — they’re also huge climate polluters
Gas-powered lawn equipment like leaf blowers and lawn mowers pollute a lot more than you might think. They pump out millions of tons of carbon dioxide each year, the primary driver of climate change.
Show the world that you’re all in. We need to quickly shift to abundant, clean and renewable energy. Share your support for a 100% renewable energy commitment with this hat.
