CENTER FOR CIVIC POLICY

Climate Justice

For a just transition that slows the climate crisis in New Mexico.

Our dedicated climate justice team is working on the local, state, and federal level on policies that will increase green energy and create a sustainable economy for our communities that doesn’t rely on extractive industries. CCP and our partners are committed to including communities across our state in conversations about climate justice to ensure that voices from across New Mexico are heard in the decision making process.

NM Prospera

Nuevo Mexico Prospera is a coalition of grassroots economic, social and environmental justice organizations from around the state working to diversify the state’s economy while creating thousands of jobs for communities most impacted by climate change. We believe communities and frontline workers who are disproportionately affected by climate change should lead the just transition to a sustainable economy that provides good paying jobs while protecting our water, air, and land.
