I hope you had a safe, healthy, and happy holiday season! I know for me, after a very busy and productive 2022, I really needed a break. You probably did, too, and I hope you got one.
Now we are back in a new year, with a new Congress taking shape and renewed urgency to advance climate solutions.
It is hard to believe that the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was enacted less than five months ago. (And the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is only a little more than a year old.)
This historic legislation will do much to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but there is still a huge amount of work to do on climate.
What are your priorities for climate action?
Looking at the year ahead, we will start off with a focus on educating new Congressional staff over the course of four all-new Climate Camp briefings (you can RSVP now).
Then, as policymakers begin to shift their attention to the must-pass Farm Bill, so, too, will our briefings, articles, and podcasts. Also, our upcoming series of side-by-side-by-side comparison charts will help staff on Capitol Hill keep track of all the various amendments and proposals on key Farm Bill provisions.
But the climate to-do list for Congress goes much further:
I am very grateful to have you as part of the extended EESI family. In 2022, you made possible 26 briefings, 150 articles, 15 podcast episodes, as well as expanded, daily coverage of the United Nations climate negotiations in Egypt, and so much more!
There is a lot more in store this year. If you would like to keep up with everything, I encourage you to subscribe to our biweekly newsletter, Climate Change Solutions, and sign up to receive all of our briefing notices, articles, press releases, and other publications.
