The Clinton Climate Initiative (CCI) will utilize the global influence of President Clinton, and the skills that the Foundation has developed in worldwide mobilization to confront crises such as AIDS, to help initiate programs that directly result in substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. In its first phase, CCI will work with a group of some 40 of the largest cities in the world to develop and implement a range of projects and programs to increase energy efficiency and generate cleaner energy. Specific actions will include provision of technical assistance and the formation of a purchasing consortium to accelerate the evolution of markets for alternative energy products.
