Grassroots
Public awareness & coalition building
Elevate these “wonky” issues in the public eye by framing them accessibly and building coalitions that push for change.
Make geothermal permitting and battery waste rules legible by connecting them to real delays, safety risks, and supply chain waste. Build coalitions of environmental, consumer safety, and supply chain voices to push agencies and lawmakers to act. This matters because technical issues are easy to ignore without political will, and accessible framing creates pressure for follow-through.
Why this works
Can generate the political will and media attention necessary to move policymakers (for example, local news stories about battery fires or positive stories of geothermal heating a town could prompt state action).
League of Conservation Voters
AdvocacyElecting environmental champions and advocating for climate action
The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) is a prominent environmental advocacy and political organization founded in 1969. LCV works to turn environmental values into national priorities by influencing elections and policy: it publishes the National Environmental Scorecard rating lawmakers’ votes, lobbies for strong environmental protections, and through its affiliated PACs supports pro-environment candidates. LCV and its state affiliates mobilize voters, run issue campaigns on climate and conservation, and have helped secure victories such as passing stronger clean air and water laws and defending public lands.
Mechanism
How League of Conservation Voters uses funding

- Build a coalition of environmental groups, consumer safety advocates, and supply chain voices
- Run communications that translate policy jargon into clear stakes and actions
- Use coalition pressure to support agency rulemakings and legislative packages
- Highlight pilot successes and incidents that demonstrate why clear guidance is needed
- Mobilize endorsements and supporter actions during key policy moments
