Reality Now: A Climate Reality Newsletter.
Welcome to the December 2025 edition of Reality Now.

Congratulations on another busy year of climate action! This year, we fought hard for climate solutions and pushed back against federal rollbacks and disinformation.

Some big 2025 wins from our network across the country include:

* A comprehensive clean energy bill in Illinois that our Chicago Metro chapter volunteers successfully lobbied for.
* Seven key environmental bills in California focused on air pollution, clean energy, and energy capacity that were signed into law with help from our California Coalition.
* A proposed petrochemical plant stopped by volunteers of the Susquehanna Valley Chapter.
* Successful resistance to a bill in North Carolina that would have eliminated an energy company’s climate commitments and raised energy costs for consumers.

Despite challenges this year, we continued to show up and meet the moment with determined climate advocacy in every corner of the country.

And we’re gearing up for more in 2026!

We have exciting plans in the works to celebrate Climate Reality’s 20th anniversary. Want to be the first to hear about our plans? Sign up here. [[link removed]]

HOLD CONGRESS ACCOUNTABLE FOR VOTING TO GUT CLEAN ENERGY

The brutal budget bill tried to kill US clean energy and stop climate progress. Send a message to thank members of Congress who voted “No” and hold other members accountable for voting to kill clean energy jobs and raise costs for all of us.
