Explore the NRG

The National Resilience Guidance (NRG) is a collaborative effort spearheaded by FEMA to build broader, more inclusive approaches to resilience nationwide.

The NRG emphasizes resilience in areas such as climate, infrastructure, economy, and health – and readers are encouraged to look for new opportunities to build new partnerships to engage all members of your communities and to utilize the tools available to you.

Empower Green Choices

The Green Energy Consumers Alliance empowers individuals and communities to accelerate the transition to a zero-carbon world. Through their programs, they provide cost-effective green energy solutions, educate consumers about renewable energy and electric vehicles and advocate for climate-forward policies.

By promoting actionable steps like switching to renewable electricity or adopting electric vehicles, they help drive sustainable choices that reduce carbon footprints and push for a more resilient energy future.
