Business Leaders: Support a Carbon Cap
Join businesses supporting a cap on carbon to unleash the clean energy economy
Be a leader of the clean energy economy.
Less Carbon, More Jobs Business Leaders is a network of businesses in the supply chains of energy efficient and renewable energy technologies that support a federal program to unleash our clean energy economy by capping America's carbon pollution
As a business leader in the emerging clean energy economy your voice is critical in this effort. We invite you to join us in advocating for swift Congressional action on comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation, with a cap on carbon emissions that will:
- deliver a long-term market signal for investors
- establish clear rules for utilities and other industries
- grow the clean energy economy to scale
- bring new customers to businesses such as yours
Our Pledge
We support comprehensive climate and clean energy legislation with a cap on greenhouse gas emissions.
Our companies – along with thousands more across America – develop, manufacture, and install the clean energy and efficiency solutions that will help America transition to a new clean energy economy, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and better our environment for future generations.
But, we can't make the transition alone; we need a strong cap on greenhouse gas emissions to get us there. A carbon cap is a signal to our markets that clean energy is a secure investment. It will provide certainty, clarity, and capital.
Thousands of U.S. manufacturers, innovators and entrepreneurs stand ready to create the next generation of jobs and economic growth. We can't afford to wait any longer to get started on our clean energy future: We need Congress to take the first step and pass a carbon cap.
