Our mission is to unite UCLA scholars with forward-looking civic leaders to solve environmental challenges confronting our community, nation, and world. We are problem solvers. Using the power of research, our analysis shapes environmental policy for the health of people and the planet. We are realists. Clean technology and community-based solutions to the climate crisis do exist. But properly designed public policies are urgently necessary to scale the solutions and make them accessible to all. This where we come in. Our research shapes environmental policy to be equitable, effective, and innovative.
