The Policy

The RPC will immediately cancel all new oil exploration, cancel all new pipeline projects, prohibit natural gas in new residential builds, ban hydraulic fracturing (fracking), end all subsidies to the fossil fuel sector, require federal investment funds to divest entirely from fossil fuels, and create a plan with an aggressive timeline with strict penalties to end leasing of federal lands for fossil fuel production and ensure companies and their executives are held accountable for paying for the entire costs of cleaning up and restoring land.

The Research

Our Broader Stance on:

We're long past the point of acknowledging climate change; we now need to commit ourselves to solving the crisis as a united species. By putting green technology research ahead of the profits of the ultra-wealthy, we can protect our planet for generations to come.
