Climate Advocacy
The climate crisis is affecting us all, and the Southeast is particularly vulnerable to impacts. Clean energy reduces climate pollution and helps protect the people and places we love.
SACE advocates for the rapid transition to clean, renewable energy resources by accelerating the adoption of electric transportation, solar and battery storage, and energy efficiency. These reliable, cost-effective sources reduce our dependence on costly, climate-polluting fossil fuels and reduce carbon emissions that are intensifying the climate crisis.
On average, Southeastern states are more vulnerable than 88% of the U.S. to dangerous effects of climate change like catastrophic flooding and heat waves.
Over 70% of adults across the Southeast support tax rebates that help make energy-efficient vehicles or solar panels more affordable.
The horse has left the barn: nearly two-thirds of electricity generation currently being built and expected to come online through 2031 will be powered by clean energy like solar and wind.
