Description: 2020 has been full of change, but good things are happening in Kansas. Thanks to climate and energy advocates like you, the movement to expand clean energy and drive climate action is growing every day. The Climate + Energy Project and our supporters build resilience in Kansas through equitable clean energy solutions and climate action. While this engagement looks different this year, either through virtual meetings or 6 feet away with masks, CEP continues to bring Kansans together to ensure equitable access to everything from the energy that keeps us cool to the air we breathe. Join your friends at the Climate + Energy Project to celebrate Kansans driving the changes we need to see to secure a healthy and resilient Kansas.
