The civil rights movement? The anti-Vietnam War movement? The labor movement of the early 20th-century? None of them would have progressed if they had only existed under the sanction of local, state, and federal governments, if they had only acted or marched with permission, if they had done nothing to disrupt the daily routines of everyday people, if they hadn’t gotten in the faces of the powerful.

Building a Sustainable Future for New York The Cleaner Greener Communities (CGC) program encourages communities to adopt regional growth strategies that are environmentally sustainable by providing resources for developing and implementing regional sustainability plans. Announced by Governor Cuomo in 2011, CGC is part of a $100 million competitive grant program encouraging regions to plan and implement smart growth and other sustainability activities that will have the greatest effect on reducing greenhouse gasses, improving energy efficiency, revitalizing cities, and deploying renewable-energy technology. Two Phases: Planning and Implementing CGC is divided into two phases: Phase I: This phase provides grants totaling $9.6 million to develop regional sustainability plans. Grants may be used to fund research and development of the plans. Applications for phase one grants are now being accepted. The deadline for submitting applications is October 31st. Phase II: This phase will provide funding, awarded on a competitive basis, for implementing projects to achieve greenhouse gas reductions, energy efficiency savings, and deployment of renewable-energy technology in ways that are consistent with the plans developed by each region. While Phase II is not open at this time, CGC administrators anticipate that potential projects will be identified in Phase I.
