A Decade of Impact

Throughout 2025 KLA is reflecting on our company's first decade as we double down on our commitment to help local governments match the urgency of the climate crisis.

Our 10-year milestone arrives at a critical moment for our communities and our planet.     

The actions of the new federal administration are an attempt to threaten progress and stall momentum on climate initiatives. But we know better.
 
For 20+ years, climate action has predominantly been driven at the local level. Sure, we appreciated a healthy financial boost from federal agencies in recent years, but that has never been the lifeline of this work. More and more local governments and state agencies have been steadily increasing their policies and financial support for work that uplifts people and economies while also protecting both from the devastating impacts of climate change. They simply can’t ignore the impacts of climate change that hit locally. Just ask Asheville, NC, or Los Angeles, CA.

Our 10 years has shown us that local governments are uniquely positioned to meet this moment by taking bold action in their communities.   

We’ve seen how true leadership, innovation and impact happen in cities, towns and counties. And we’ve marveled as the benefits – more diverse economies and jobs, connected communities, thriving neighborhoods – have created more champions of climate action.  

So to mark KLA’s 10th anniversary we will elevate our focus on building capacity for local governments to take on this existential crisis. You can expect more of our signature resources and services to ensure local leaders are equipped with the data and tools they need to be catalysts for change.
