About [Edit]
The Apollo Alliance provides a message of optimism and hope, framed around rejuvenating our nation’s economy by creating the next generation of American industrial jobs and treating clean energy as an economic and security mandate to rebuild America. America needs to hope again, to dream again, to think big, and to be called to the best of our potential by tapping the optimism and can-do spirit that is embedded in our nation’s history.
Our Mission
The mission of the Apollo Alliance is to build a broad-based constituency in support of a sustainable and clean energy economy that will create millions of good jobs for the nation, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and create cleaner and healthier communities. Through policy alternatives, organizing, and on the ground results in states and cities across the nation, we are demonstrating that a social just, environmentally balanced and economically prosperous future is attainable.
Our challenge today is to liberate the US economy and our national security from dependence on fossil fuels. In 2003, we launched the Apollo Alliance to unify constituencies behind a bold plan of investment in clean energy technology and sustainable infrastructure that can create millions of good jobs, reduce our impact on the global environment and dramatically reduce our dependence on oil in a generation.
