The Week in Sustainability
November 11–15, 2024
This week:
After the 2024 U.S. election, several states took significant climate action despite federal uncertainties. Washington voters upheld the Climate Commitment Act, ensuring funding for carbon reduction projects, while California approved a $10 billion resilience fund targeting wildfire prevention, water conservation, and clean energy. Hawaii launched a Climate Resiliency Fund, and Louisiana allocated renewable energy revenue for coastal restoration. In South Dakota, voters repealed a law favoring pipeline development, prioritizing landowner rights. Meanwhile, Texas reinforced fossil fuel policies, leaving climate action to local efforts. These state-level initiatives reflect growing public support for policies that enhance safety and resilience.
