Environment America’s 2024 highlights
Five highlights of how our advocacy and action in 2024 put our country and our world on a greener, healthier, more sustainable path.
Clean, renewable energy is within our reach — all we have to do is seize the opportunities around us.
To live greener, healthier lives we need to be using less energy and getting more of our energy from renewable sources like the sun and the wind.
