The atmosphere, damaged by fossil fuel emissions, is on the verge of canceling life as we know it. But the world's clean energy transition is slacking. Federal leadership on But don't despair.
Metro Status monitors your metro area's progress on its big beautiful Clean Energy Transition.
🤓 We track and report on clean energy across your metro area's economy. You'll see which local sectors and companies are outperforming others in ditching fossil fuels and going all-electric.
😎 Some industries and cities in your metro are adopting new energy tech faster than others. Their progress is amazing, admirable, and achievable.
😬 Other folks – not so much. Some metro-area orgs (and big corporations operating locally) have been quite slow about modernizing their energy situation.
Our big goal is to make it easy for metro area residents to stay updated on how well their local energy transition is going.
Keep up with your metro area's Great Energy Transition here.
Why Metro Areas? That's where the world's Great Energy Transition is taking place.
The world as a whole is a hot mess. But look closer, geographically, at metro areas.
North America's 469 official metropolitan areas are the centers of a nation's economic activity – where most people live and work and play. So, metros are where we can assess and grow big chunks of the Great Energy Transition.
Smart people on the ground, in cities and suburbs and towns – they're moving forward. The big switch from fossil fuels to clean energy is already happening in your metro area with things like
• all-electric vehicle fleets
• gas-free homes & buildings
• solar-topped parking
• virtual solar electricity, and
• lots of giant batteries
It's the local, metro-area companies, cities, and citizens who are the ones – slowly but surely – driving the world's Great Energy Transition.
In metro areas, you can actually see a better (or less bad) future taking shape.
Leadership: When you see your local counterpart successfully upgrade their operations to all-electric, you might feel
a twinge of envy, nudging you to achieve your own energy ambitions.
