Congressional Climate Camps

The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) hosted a 'Congressional Climate Camp' briefing series to provide legislative and political context for U.S. climate policy. The series featured experts discussing historical turning points in federal climate policy, the role of advocacy and stakeholder engagement, the impact of political polarization on compromise, and the interaction between the legislative and executive branches in producing major bills.

• The Congressional Climate Camp briefing series focuses on the basics of the legislative process and identifies opportunities for achieving both near-term and long-term carbon reductions through policy.
• The series examines past legislative efforts and the current political and public opinion environment to understand the forces shaping current Congressional work to address the climate crisis.
