In-house Organization Details

Description of the organization's activities

Clean Prosperity promotes market-based solutions to address climate change. We advocate for effective policies that will decarbonize our economy while contributing to economic growth. We run outreach campaigns targeting the public and stakeholders that explain how carbon pricing works and why it's necessary. We engage with elected representatives and non-elected officials to discuss the environmental and economic benefits of carbon tax and rebate programs. We also advocate for complimentary policies that further drive down emissions while in support of a carbon price.
