New Jersey Future

Founded in 1987, New Jersey Future is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that promotes sensible growth, redevelopment and infrastructure investments to foster vibrant cities and towns, protect natural lands and waterways, enhance transportation choices, provide access to safe, affordable and aging-friendly neighborhoods and fuel a strong economy. The organization does this through original research, innovative policy development, coalition-building, advocacy, and hands-on strategic assistance.

ReThink Energy NJ

New Jersey is moving in the wrong direction. Our emissions are going up, not down, due to an over-reliance on gas-fired electricity generation, and multiple new unneeded gas pipelines are proposed for the state.

ReThink Energy NJ informs and empowers New Jersey citizens and decision-makers about the need for a swift transition to home-grown, efficient and renewable energy, and reduced use of dirty fossil fuels and pipelines that threaten our land, water, health and communities. We promote environmentally sound planning and siting for renewable energy infrastructure.
