Building fossil fuel infrastructure locks us into a higher-carbon future
Fossil fuel infrastructure harms our environment and health today. And adding more of it makes the job of breaking free from fossil fuels in the future that much harder.

Fossil fuels outnumber clean energy projects in NEPA environmental review
Renewable energy is on the rise across America. But there are still lots of pipelines and other fossil fuel projects awaiting federal environmental review.

Products without packaging: How refill stores can help solve the plastics crisis
A world without single-use plastics might seem a long way off – but the rise of zero waste retail provides a glimpse of what that world could look like.

Renewable Natural Gas is not your friend
Renewable natural gas is not the climate-friendly alternative to conventional gas that the energy industry’s current PR offensive is making it out to be. Touting it as such is greenwashing, plain and simple, and delays our progress toward a genuine clean energy future.

Electric Fleets for Arizona
Cities and towns in Arizona spend millions of dollars each year to purchase, fuel and maintain a wide variety of fleet vehicles – sedans, pickup trucks, emergency vehicles, passenger vans, road maintenance vehicles and many more. Nearly all those vehicles are powered by gasoline or diesel fuel, which are costly and contribute to Arizona’s air pollution. Electric vehicles (EVs) can save money for cities and towns because they are cheaper to fuel and to maintain. A rarity just a decade ago, electric vehicles are becoming increasingly affordable and capable, and with automakers introducing new models every year, EVs are becoming a viable option for many of the tasks municipal vehicles are required to perform.
