Western Climate Initiative

Western Climate Initiative

The Western Climate Initiative "is a collaboration of independent jurisdictions working together to identify, evaluate, and implement policies to tackle climate change at a regional level. This is a comprehensive effort to reduce greenhouse gas pollution, spur investment in clean-energy technologies that create green jobs and reduce dependence on imported oil."  Arizona, California, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington are all partners in the program, along with a number of Canadian provinces.
