President Clinton launched the Clinton Climate Initiative (CCI) in August 2006 to make a difference in the fight against climate change in practical, measurable and significant ways. In its first phase, CCI is serving as the exclusive implementing partner of the C40 Large Cities Climate Leadership Group, an association of large cities around the world that have pledged to accelerate their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. CCI is assisting partner cities to develop and implement large scale projects resulting in substantial reductions in energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.
Expanding upon its work with the C40, CCI is extending the benefits of its programs and purchasing assistance to additional cities, building owners, and institutions.
