our Solidarity for Climate Action platform
Robert l., At the BlueGreen Alliance, research is the backbone of our work. It provides the foundation for our unique and essential coalition-building and policy development work. Without it, concrete actions to protect and create high-quality jobs while solving the climate crisis simply wouldn’t have a chance. This year—with support from people like you—we conducted critical research that built on our Solidarity for Climate Action platform and informed comprehensive national policy proposals and reports: BlueGreen Alliance Manufacturing Agenda provides a roadmap to make America a leader in clean technology manufacturing and to strengthen and transform the nation’s industrial base to make it the cleanest and most advanced in the world. Water Works shows how investments in the nation’s water systems to improve them to a “B” grade would create 654,000 job-years—a job that employs a person full-time for one year—across the U.S. economy. Less Exposure and More Protection found Black and Latinx workers are more likely to have jobs that require them to physically report to a workplace where there are lower wages and a higher risk of exposure to the COVID-19 virus. Misled is an interactive report exploring the real world impacts of the Trump administration’s actions on workers’ rights and safety, environmental protection, job creation, and pandemic response. Our research informs all that we do and reaffirms our shared belief that we don’t have to choose between good jobs and a clean environment—we can and must have both. Will you help us in the fight for a better future for all Americans and stand in solidarity with us? Your contribution today will help jump-start our year-end fundraising campaign, and put us closer to our goal. In solidarity, Jason Walsh P.S.
