The New Progressive Alliance is a 100-percent volunteer, educational organization dedicated to positively influencing public policy.  Toward that end, we support the Unified Platform; participate in official public comment opportunities to regulatory agencies; and help people and organizations make their progressive case with Make your Case by using documentation which is continuously updated.

1. News is a list of our activities for the last three months. 

2. United Nations links articles showing our involvement with the United Nations and how you can be involved as well.

1.  News: 

Publishing here means showing a reference to an article. We publish in Facebook at the New Progressive Alliance, Leftist Third Party and Independent Candidates, Greens Discuss the Issues, Truth Bomb Activists, Progressive Perspectives, and "Progressives, Real Greens, and Socialists of Colorado." Because of problems with privacy and censorship on Facebook, we also publish on Twitter. Connections to all of our allies may be found here.

• In September we published “Lithium: Storing more clean power with less pollution. Lithium mining is much cleaner than coal mining.” All mining is not the same and all manufacturing is not bad. We need to make hard focused decisions to avoid the worst of climate change.

• In September we published “Empirically grounded technology forecasts and the energy transition.” This extensive study conclusively shows rapid green energy transition will likely result in trillions of dollars in savings.

• In September we published 'Betrayal and injustice': U.N. secretary-general says global climate change response is falling short.”  Why can’t we read the obvious signs?

• In September we published “The Chris Hedges Report: Why did Democrats give this pro-Trump GOP primary candidate $425,000?” and the NPA article “The Democratic Party is the More Effective of Two Evils.” While there may be little choice many times this November, these two articles show we need to remain skeptical about the democrats.

• In September we published information about two webinars for “Climate Action Tracker” and “Defund Deforestation.”

• In September we published “Electrifying transportation reduces emissions AND saves massive amounts of energy.  Electric vehicles are far more energy-efficient than traditional internal combustion vehicles” and the NPA article “We can power with renewable energy right now” with over 335 references. These articles clearly show that we are not doomed by climate change and there are solutions.

• In September we published “The carbon footprint fixation is getting out of hand.”  It is governments and big corporations rather than individuals who are to blame and must reform.

• In September we published “How Many People Must Starve Before It’s News?” It is bewildering why mass starvation, crop shortages, floods, droughts, climate refugees, and climate caused power outages are not being reported.

• In September we published our NPA article on the environment which is continuously updated. Future generations will correctly regard the environment as the most important issue we faced. This article has over 2,500 references collected over the years and is being continually updated. It shows the science is settled and covers 20 different environmental aspects.

• In August we posted an honest government ad about the United Kingdom. One of many points is that renewable energy is cheaper and more reliable than fossil fuels.

• In August we published “The Democratic Base Keeps Getting Richer and Whiter” and “The Democratic Party is the More Effective of Two Evils.” We should not blindly trust the democrats.
• In August we published “Nightly News Fails to Connect Gas Price Surge and Climate Crisis.” Why can’t the news media just do its job?

• In August we published a video showing the same interests that lied to us about tobacco and cancer are lying about climate change.

• In August we published “America Aspires to One Day in the Far Future Build Rail Service Worse Than It Was in the 1940s - Amtrak has a bold vision for the future: slower trains than the days before color television.” The United States is falling behind the rest of the world in infrastructure.

• In August we published “Hundreds Dead from Heat as Extreme Temperatures Scorch North Africa, Asia, Europe, China,” the NPA article “Cost of Environmental Destruction” with over 200 references, “The Dawn of the Apocalypse - We were warned for decades about the death march we are on because of global warming. And yet, the global ruling class continues to frog-march us towards extinction” and “Climate Change: Famines and the Food Crisis.” We are headed for a disastrous irreversible climate disaster if we do not change course soon. Time is short.
• In August we published “Greenwashing at Its Finest: How Corporations Use Environmental Concerns to Scam You,” the NPA article “Fossil Fuel Companies Lie,” and “The audacious PR plot that seeded doubt about climate change,” and  “Leaked: US power companies secretly spending millions to protect profits and fight clean energy.” These articles show Fossil Fuel companies are being outrageously dishonest.

• In August we published our NPA article “Education” with over 940 references. A decline in public education and making higher education largely unaffordable except to those willing to become indentured servants for most of their lives means we are becoming more and more like a third world country. The very idea of fully funded public education has been declining for some time. Charter schools are being used as a weapon to defund public schools. This will have a calamitous effect on our future if not reversed.

• In August we published “Pseudo-Journalists Are Attacking Elon Musk with Lies, but the Harm Is Very Real.” Musk, though imperfect, has done more tangible measurable good in fighting climate change than any other person or organization. His four companies all work to solve the problems of humanity. And yet some democrats and the fossil fuel industry try to persuade us that he is evil and "journalists" eagerly spread the lies. 

• In July we published an “Honest Government Ad” about the dangerous direction the United States Supreme Court was headed.

• In July we published “The nexus between the climate change and democracy crises.” Stakes are high for the future of our planet and for democracy.

• In July we published “Chris Hedges, Edward Snowden, Noam Chomsky, Glenn Greenwald, Paul Jay & Daniel Ellsberg on Assange” as well as the New Progressive Alliance article “The War on Whistleblowers” with over 520 references.  Much is at stake on the illegal prosecution of whistleblowers.

• In July we published “How the Supreme Court Is Rebranding Corruption.” This will have long term consequences.

• In July we published “Daughter of murdered Honduran human rights activist files criminal complaint against Dutch Development Bank FMO” and the NPA article “Killing and Harassment of Environmentalists is Increasing” with over 50 references.

• In July we published, “The criticality of climate finance for Africa.” Solving climate change is a worldwide problem.

• Future generations will realize this was our most important issue. Will we? These articles clearly lay out the danger of environmental destruction if we continue on the road we are on. In July we published the following articles.

• -A failure of humanity’: World’s poorest countries contend with climate disasters caused by the richest nations

  -Cost of Environmental Destruction” with over 200 references. 

  -Deaths, Costs of Climate-Linked Disasters May Be Grossly Undercounted

  -Chili peppers, coffee, wine: how the climate crisis is causing food shortages

  -California Towns Scramble to Prevent Next Wildfire Catastrophe

• In July we published our NPA article “The Economy” with a companion article “Economic Graphs and Videos” with a combined number of over 1,750 references. Though economics is a dry subject, there is a very real human cost to getting economic policy wrong.

• DISH recently requested from the FCC rule changes for the 12 GHz Spectrum which would substantially and greatly interfere with Starlink and other applications giving citizens access to internet by speculative and poorly-defined technologies and individuals who have no clear plans to help close the digital divide. In July the New Progressive Alliance opposed this with Public Comment 242 which contained comments to Congress and the Federal Communication Commission. Public Comment 242 which may be found in full at http://www.newprogs.org/public_comments_2020_224

• In July we published stories showing unarmed people of color who were murdered by police were thugs but an armed mass shooter who was white was a “cub scout.”

• In July we published “Fascists In Our Midst.” Dangers to our civil rights and constitutional republic go far beyond the overturning of Roe vs. Wade.

• In July we published the YouTube video “Fossil Fuel subsidies and poverty” as well as the NPA article “Cost of Fossil Fuel Subsidies” with over 80 references. These two articles show governments worldwide pay far more for fossil fuels than renewable energy.
