The climate movement also plans to spend the next four years hunkering down at the local level. McKibben’s newest organization, Third Act, a nonprofit group for climate activists older than 60 that he started about three years ago, is highlighting the push for change at the community and state level. Over the past 18 months, they’ve begun a new strategy: attending the meetings of obscure state agencies or commissions that hold a lot of power over the energy transition.“These are places that no one has engaged much with for decades,” McKibben said. “They’ve been protected by a force field of their own boringness.”


The Inflation Reduction Act should be defended as robustly as possible to keep money flowing into clean energy projects, McKibben said. And, he added, President Biden’s pause on liquefied natural gas export terminals — or what McKibben calls “carbon bombs” — should be made permanent. …
