Hawaii Youth in Action

2024 Climate Future Forum and Youth Climate Summit  November 16, 2024 


The mission of the Climate Future Forum is to inspire youth to be active and engaged participants in the 2025 legislative session on climate policy and action. The event brought together youth (ages 14-26), educators, policymakers, experts and community organizations to evaluate and discuss climate action priorities and provide tangible steps to empower youth in legislative action.  Our hope is for youth to forge relationships with policymakers so that they can continue to work together throughout the 2024 legislative session at the county, state, and national levels.

Introducing the Energy Innovation Act!

Rep. Salud Carbajal reintroduced the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act in the House.

This policy puts a #PriceOnPollution across the economy to reduce carbon pollution so we can reach 50% by 2030 and net zero by 2050.

 

Who we are

We are an all-volunteer organization in Hawaii comprised of members from CCL chapters in Oahu, Maui, Hawaii Island, and Kauai.

We work to create political support for durable climate policy and an equitable and just transition for everyone.

We support carbon pricing, nature-based solutions, building electrification and efficiency, and permitting reform.

We advocate for local and national climate policies, including carbon cashback, a proven approach to reducing planet-warming emissions while offering a just transition for people, particularly our vulnerable.

Join CCL to help fight climate change. You'll be connected with your local CCL chapter and provided valuable training opportunities and resources

 
In terms of policy, carbon pricing is definitely the most significant single policy that there could be. If it’s tax and dividend, it’s even better because, basically, you’re rewarded for taking less and doing more, if you will, for the environment.
— Paul Hawken
 

So that future generations will have a livable world.
