The mission of the Climate Crisis Working Group (CCWG) is to study and share information about climate change and take effective climate action in Moore County and beyond. The group's vision is to raise awareness and empower the nation, united in rapidly stemming the impact of climate change and building climate resilience in our country and across the world.

SF Climate Week 2025 kicked off with a defining moment: a powerful keynote from former U.S. Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Al Gore. Speaking to a packed room at the iconic Exploratorium, Gore set the tone for the week—framing it as a pivotal moment in the fight for our climate and our democracy.
In this wide-ranging address, Gore underscores the critical connection between climate change and democracy, denounces fossil fuel disinformation, and calls on individuals, businesses, and governments to take bold, immediate action.
Repowering education with clean energy -
Schools present a great opportunity for North Carolina to boost its production of clean solar power while improving the resilience of our communities.
Solar power is a critical solution to North Carolina’s energy challenges — producing clean, affordable electricity right in the communities we call home. In fact, solar panels on the rooftops of roughly 2,400 (about 90%) of North Carolina’s public schools could produce enough electricity to power almost 150,000 typical homes each year. Furthermore, taking advantage of North Carolina’s full potential for solar on schools would reduce climate-warming carbon dioxide pollution by as much as taking almost 280,000 cars off the road for a year, and would cut air pollution that puts kids’ health at risk. Going solar can also help insulate schools from the effects of rising and increasingly volatile electricity prices.
