ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability is an association of local governments – more than 250 cities, towns and counties in the U.S. and close to 1,000 worldwide – dedicated to solving environmental problems through local action. ICLEI works with our members to design and implement performance-based, results-oriented programs to address climate protection. Our work is proof that locally designed initiatives can provide an effective and cost-efficient way to achieve local, national, and global sustainability and climate protection objectives. For more than a decade, we’ve demonstrated that we can turn the problems associated with global climate change into profitable solutions that also make our communities cleaner, better places to live.

The Yale Project on Climate Change, an initiative of The Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies, seeks to elevate public discourse and encourage public engagement with climate change solutions.

The mission of The Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies is to prepare new leadership and create new knowledge to sustain and restore the long-term health of the biosphere and the well-being of its people. For over one hundred years, first as a pioneering school of forestry, Yale has marshaled the expertise of diverse disciplines in the service of responsible stewardship of the environment.
