They give it all away in their mission statement, which is green marxism redux:

We are united around the goal of rapidly greening our nation's central cities and their surrounding metropolitan regions in equitable and democratically accountable ways. We envision a future in which American cities are the greenest and most equitable in the world, leading the way to head off global climate change while creating a vital new economic sector.

"democratically accountable" = whatever is supported by whomever we define as "the people" and "the working class" (even if the majority of the actual "people" and the actual "working class" are against what we want)

"Equitable" = we support any program that weakens the free market and the capitalist economy by taking from the rich

"head off global climate chage while creating a vital new economic sector" = cap and trade will force legitimate corporations out of business in the name of funding the zero-sum green energy sector (and the global marxism movement)

Kinda funny how the left thinks all things from health care to housing should be free but when it comes to air and water we should pay for it.

“Once you price CO2 and put a price on it, you find, as you would with any other product, it tends to be rationed. We as a people on this planet have lived under the false concept that air and water were free. And we’ve learned with a planet of 7 billion people, that we have to ration these precious goods. And the good old price system is the best way to do it.”
