100 days of engagement during the first 100 days of the new administration and Congress.....
In January 2008, nearly a million people at more than 1,900 Focus the Nation events began a conversation on global warming solutions with 64 members of Congress, 15 governors and countless local and state politicians. Colleges and Universities, K-12 schools, community and faith groups and businesses came together for a day of education and action.
Building on the success of January, Focus is continuing to empower young people to accelerate the transition to a just and prosperous clean energy future in four ways:
- Community education on clean energy
- Sustained engagement with elected officials
- Networking youth initiatives
- Developing clean energy leaders
