by Brianna Crandall — November 29, 2010—At the conclusion of the Governors’ Global Climate Summit 3 (GGCS 3) hosted recently in California by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, several prominent leaders from around the world announced a first-of-its-kind subnational public-private alliance that will work toward climate change solutions and building the global green economy: R20—Regions of Climate Action.
Composed of subnational governments and private and nongovernment partners, R20 is a global coalition committed to fast tracking the development of clean technologies, climate resilient projects and green investment, and influencing national and international policies.
The coalition will catalyze partnerships between developed and developing subnational regions to fast track actions in energy efficiency, renewable energy and clean transportation.
