The Climate Leadership Council (the Council) is a nonprofit think tank dedicated to championing the most effective, fair, and lasting climate solutions.
We produce groundbreaking research, educate policymakers, and work with a broad set of stakeholders to advance our common goal: meaningfully reduce global emissions while strengthening our economy. We are also home to the Center for Climate and Trade, which explores and advances policies that leverage trade relationships and the global market economy towards greater international cooperation and climate ambition.
At the Council, our approach revolves around market-based solutions that leverage economic forces to reduce emissions across the globe. In doing so, we will not only more meaningfully address climate change, but also create better opportunities for American businesses, workers, and families. Our vision is to achieve lasting climate policy breakthroughs where all sides win.
