CT RENEWS Sign On


Climate change, COVID-19, racial injustice, and growing economic disparities are intertwined crises. Connecticut Renews urges bold climate mitigation policies that prioritize investment in vulnerable communities and create good jobs. Low-income and communities of color are exposed to greater pollution; contaminated air, water and soil devalues property in these communities. Connecticut Renews is committed to investing in a more just, equitable and sustainable future for Connecticut.

100% Clean & Renewable Electricity

  • Set a requirement of 100% zero-emission renewable electricity by 2030, and take steps to equitably achieve it by increasing energy efficiency, solar, wind and energy storage.

Healthy and Sustainable Housing

  • Improve the comfort and living conditions of our residents with comprehensive energy efficiency and renewable retrofits beginning with public housing and affordable housing.

Clean & Accessible Transportation

  • Prioritize communities overburdened by transportation pollution by improving and electrifying public transit, school buses and the state fleet. Invest in improvements for safer, more accessible pedestrian and biking routes.

Healthy Communities, Clean Air & Water

  • Transform environmental justice communities through Green Justice Zone pilots that vigorously clean up pollution, deploy clean and renewable technologies, and create jobs where they are needed most. Increase overall investment for stormwater infrastructure improvements including replacing aging infrastructure, lead pipe removal, CSO separation, advanced treatment septic systems and green infrastructure.

Food Justice

  • Expand access to affordable and nutritious food in vulnerable communities, and support small local farms that use ecologically friendly agricultural practices.
