Join us on Saturday for CCL 2020

Our country is grappling with big issues this year: a global pandemic,
and putting Americans back to work. Confronting our legacy of injustice.
Navigating a big election. Although this time is painful and
challenging, we see hope in the huge numbers of Americans making their
voices heard in our democracy.

This weekend, our conference will focus on climate change. But
throughout the conference, you'll find many connections to the other
issues of the day, such as:

"Thinking Forward on Race and America," with John Wood Jr. from the
organization Braver Angels, which works on depolarizing American
politics

"Navigating Business Outreach in the Time of COVID," with CCL's National
Outreach and Partnerships Coordinator Taylor Krause and members of the
Business Climate Leaders action team

"How COVID and Carbon Pricing Affect Coal Communities," with Brandon
Dennison from Coalfield Development

The conference will also feature keynote remarks from Rachel Kyte of
Tufts University, who formerly served as special representative of the
U.N. secretary-general for Sustainable Energy for All and as World Bank
Group vice president and special envoy for climate change. She has a
message of encouragement and determination in the face of all the
challenges we're dealing with right now.

Media: 6th grade CCLer gets on radio

She just turned 12, but Aili (pronounced eye-lee) Scott has already
accomplished a lot with the North Tahoe CCL chapter. She came to
Washington (shown above with mom Megan Scott) and lobbied her members of
Congress last year, organized her school's climate strike last fall, and
wrote an op-ed for her local newspaper. Last month Aili did a half-hour
interview on her local station

, Truckee Tahoe Radio. In the course of her interview, she talked about
the Energy Innovation Act and lobbying Congress (CCL stuff starts about
20 minutes in). Something tells us we'll be hearing more from Aili in
the future.
