Local Government Green Jobs Pledge
The 21st century is our time to build an inclusive green economy in the United States that benefits our communities, our working families and our planet. Right now a green future is being invented in cities and counties across the US by local leaders – mayors, county executives, community activists, local business owners, and youth organizers- in brief all of us.
