🔋 Central Georgia EMC just signed on to deploy 50 MW of energy storage in Georgia. These new batteries will charge while prices are low, and stabilize the grid and lower costs during times when demand is high. 🔗

🎉 Congratulations to All In Chair Gina McCarthy on receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at the @reuters.com Global Sustainability Awards! Three decades at the forefront of America’s fight for sustainability, powered by a relentless spirit of optimism. 🔗 www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

🏆 San Jose Clean Energy, @caltrain.com & Westlight Energy just won a national Green Power Leadership Award for a first-of-its-kind model: pairing 100% renewable energy with rail electrification and regenerative braking to cut emissions, improve air quality, and lower operating costs. 🔗

“At the time, people thought of wind & solar as alternative energy. Well, it’s not alternative anymore, it’s now the largest source of electricity in the state.” @coenergyoffice.bsky.social ED Will Toor on how CO powered most of its grid with clean energy for the first 6 months of 2026. 🎧 TUNE IN:

📍 Grand Haven, Michigan’s public utility has already cut local carbon emissions by 70% from peak levels. ⚡🏠 Their latest addition of a 4.32 MW solar farm will keep the clean energy rolling with enough to power 738 homes a year. Learn more 🔗

“Every single day I see mayors from across the country showing the world what true American values look like.” – Mayor @justinmbibb.bsky.social at All In’s Local to Global Exchange No matter what headlines come out of the White House, local leaders are putting our country’s true values into action.

“Cities, states, businesses, and other actors are continuing the clean energy transition and are pressing forward to build a cleaner, healthier, more prosperous future.” – All In’s Executive Director Chris Wheat at the Japan Climate Action Summit.

State leaders like @govpritzker.illinois.gov are putting change into motion as they explore new paths to meet the needs of their communities – and they’re setting the blueprint for other good climate actors to follow.

In @nytimes.com this week, All In Chair Gina McCarthy blasted the Department of Transportation rollbacks of fuel efficiency standards: "For fifty years, fuel-economy standards have saved Americans money and cut pollution at the same time." Read more 🔗

Today, @usdot.bsky.social finalized a rollback of national fuel economy standards, weakening requirements that help make vehicles more efficient, cut pollution, and save drivers money. These standards were expected to saveAmericans an estimated $82B. Read more 🔗

From our Local to Global Exchange to conversations across the city and at the UN, it was a busy #ClimateWeekNYC. Thanks to everyone who joined us, shared their perspective, or made time to connect – we’re so excited for all that’s to come.

💪 Alliance governors showed up in force this #ClimateWeekNYC! Watch the full recap of @americaisallin.com's Local to Global Exchange & learn more about how Alliance governors & @climatemayors.bsky.social are teaming up to sustain America’s climate fight ⬇️ usclimatealliance.org/events/clima...

“If you get out of Washington, you will see that the states and cities are all acting on climate change. They are not missing opportunities. They are grabbing them and they are running with them.” — All In Chair Gina McCarthy at @rockymtninst.bsky.social’s #ClimateWeekNYC event today

At the Local to Global Exchange, leaders from across the U.S. and around the world came together to share what’s working in their communities, learn from one another, and strengthen the connections that are moving climate progress forward.

Cutting emissions, cleaning up the air, growing the economy. The argument is over. California, under @governor.ca.gov, is advancing the solutions that are moving the Golden State forward. 📽️ @americaisallin.com

Proud to serve as Co-Chair of America Is All In at #ClimateWeekNYC. Illinois understands that affordability, reliability, and clean energy go hand in hand. Unlike the President, this coalition of governors, mayors, and more knows we must act now to address climate change.

The Northern Illinois Transit Authority is a game-changer. An effective transit system that has expanded service and safety measures while bringing more riders than ever on board, thanks to a new region-wide, low-income reduced-fare program.

In the 20 years since California's carbon emission peak in 2004, we've both slashed those emissions by 28% and nearly doubled our economy. The Golden State’s economy is growing BECAUSE of our climate action, not despite it. #ClimateWeekNYC

Affordability and climate action go hand-in-hand — and that couldn’t be more clear than with California’s Cap-and-Invest program.

Great to be at the @americaisallin.com event with @governor.ca.gov to discuss climate, competitiveness, and independence. California is doing a truly impressive job in marrying its climate ambition with spectacular growth. We’ll further step up our collaboration in carbon markets and clean tech.

Governor of California @gavinnewsom.bsky.social speaking at the United Nations on the power of local climate action.

At The Cooperative's Innovation Forum today, All In Chair Gina McCarthy joined a conversation about how healthcare can work with communities and partners beyond the health system to better protect people from climate-related health risks like extreme heat and poor air quality.

That’s a wrap from the Local to Global Exchange! Thanks to all who joined us in person and via livestream – and to all of our speakers & partners who made this morning possible. The event may be over, but there’s plenty more ahead. We’re excited to continue this work together.

"What I loved about today was that the throughline in nearly every example was partnership. Maybe those partnerships are unconventional....but they are in the spirit of collective action, knowing that we go farther and faster together." - All In's Chris Wheat closes out the Local to Global Exchange

“Climate action is not a burden on prosperity. It is how we secure it.” – UNFCCC Executive Secretary Simon Stiell at the Local to Global Exchange

@bloombergtv.bsky.social's @norahmulinda.bsky.social moderated a panel w/ The Cooperative's Dr. Renee Salas, Connecticut Green Bank's Mackey Dykes & @c40cities.bsky.social Co-Chair and Freetown Mayor Aki-Sawyerr on how they’re deploying cross-sector solutions to benefit the communities they serve.

Affordability, reliability, and clean energy go hand in hand. At the Local to Global Exchange, All In Chair Gina McCarthy and Co-Chair @govpritzker.illinois.gov discussed how Illinois puts that into practice – meeting growing energy demand while lowering costs & building a stronger, cleaner grid.

At the Local to Global Exchange, @ctrglobsust.bsky.social's Nate Hultman announced the new U.S. City Climate & Energy Policy Database, in partnership with America Is All In. This tool will help cities better understand the policy landscape to sustain climate ambition.
