Absolutely. Many Hawai‘i volunteers participate from areas without a nearby chapter — you can dial into CCL’s national meetings on Zoom, take monthly actions from home, or volunteer with one of CCL’s national Action Teams.

CCL’s mission is focused on advancing effective climate solutions at the federal level, so your local chapter meets with Hawai‘i’s representatives and senators in the U.S. Congress.
Hawaii is experiencing several consequences of our changed climate: droughts and wildfires, more frequent and stronger hurricanes, vector migration threatening indigenous birds, coral bleaching, and daytime flooding in certain areas. Sea level rise is very concerning – much of our infrastructure and core visitor industry assets are in areas that will be inundated.
Join us to learn more about the climate impacts we’re seeing statewide and how to talk to Congress about solving the problem.
