What Climate Action Campaign US does

Climate Action Campaign (CAC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit advocacy coalition operating as a project of The Partnership Project, headquartered in Washington, DC. The organization drives ambitious, durable, and equitable federal climate action by cutting carbon pollution and accelerating the clean energy transition, serving a coalition of over 400 member organizations spanning environmental, environmental justice, agricultural, health, and faith-based groups including Sierra Club, Earthjustice, National Wildlife Federation, and Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments.

CAC's core offerings are not traditional software products but rather a portfolio of advocacy tools, educational resources, and storytelling platforms. These include the Trump Climate and Clean Energy Rollback Tracker, the Extreme Weather Map, the Cost of Inaction Ticker (visualizing NOAA's billion-dollar disaster data), THE FEED (a November 2024-launched storytelling platform featuring 50+ farmer stories on climate-smart agriculture), the Storytellers video program, and the Museum of Unnatural Disasters. The organization also conducts in-person advocacy events including the Clean Energy REVolution Tour across 13+ states and People's Climate Hearings in multiple cities. The underlying technology stack consists of standard digital platforms for content distribution, email/SMS advocacy alerts, and social media engagement, with no proprietary technology development.

CAC's business model is based on donations and grants from foundations, individuals, and organizations supportive of climate action. All advocacy resources, educational materials, and policy research are provided free of charge to coalition members, the general public, and policymakers. The organization does not sell products or services and has no disclosed revenue, operating budget, or headcount growth metrics publicly available.

The core offerings include the Trump Climate and Clean Energy Rollback Tracker, Extreme Weather Map, and the Museum of Unnatural Disasters for tracking policy impacts; the Cost of Inaction Ticker for visualizing climate costs; the Storytellers video platform; and The Feed (launched November 2024), a storytelling website featuring farmer stories about climate-smart agriculture. The organization also conducts the Clean Energy REVolution Tour as a major campaign initiative.
