The exponential growth of local Climate Emergency declarations
This time last year, only 2 local governments in the United States and a small handful of cities around the world had made a declaration of Climate Emergency. As of March 22, 2019, 413 local governments had declared a Climate Emergency and made a commitment to rapid, just transition away from fossil fuels.
