We've been putting together a series of case studies showing how people all over the Northeast are already showing the way by cutting emissions. We decided to tailor press releases for each of the eight states we're working in to showcase the local climate champions.

One of my favorites is the Shaw's Supermarkets case study . Shaw's signed up as our first formal partner last December, and we are working with them on half a dozen new projects, from energy efficiency to public education.
