The Climate Action Alliance of the Valley (CAAV) is a volunteer, grassroots nonprofit organization, headquartered in Harrisonburg, with over 540 members.
CAAV’s mission is to limit the impact of humans on Earth’s climate, thereby providing for the common good by protecting the future of Earth and its inhabitants. CAAV’s goal is to have legislators who are familiar with the best scientific understanding of climate change so that they will consider the climatic implications, including risks, of any decisions they make. By so doing we hope to bring about the systemic change required to protect Earth’s climate and its associated benefits for current and future generations.
