Welcome to the UJAE website!
Welcome to the website of the Unions for Jobs and the Environment. UJAE was formed in early 2000 to provide a voice for union and worker concerns regarding the climate policy debate and other environmental matters. Subsequently, UJAE expanded its activities to include a discussion of air quality and energy issues to reflect the policy discussions by UJAE unions.
This website is part of our effort to provide a forum for discussion, education and distribution of information on ways to provide a healthier environment balanced with the need to ensure growth in jobs and incomes.
UJAE.org contains a number of presentations including an overview of the trends in air quality, addressing global warming through sequestration and technology, and discussions of addressing air quality issues at the federal and state level. UJAE is recognized by the United Nations as an observer of the UN climate negotiations conducted under the auspices of the United Nations. UJAE has been present at many of the negotiating sessions to represent labor concerns including Kyoto, and recent negotiations in Milan. UJAE member union positions from resolutions, testimony and speeches are available on the "UJAE Members" webpage. We are always happy to receive your comments about the material we present.
