State governments need to step up for climate action now

This summer we are reeling from the devastating impacts of the climate crisis. We are coping with floods, record heat, wildfires, rising ocean temperatures, and tornadoes. And as long as the climate crisis remains unchecked, these devastating weather events will not just continue, they will increase in frequency.

State governments are in unique positions to ramp up the fight against global warming and demonstrate their commitment despite federal policy gridlock and rollbacks. Even with congressional climate legislation making headway, the federal government faces major uphill battles around regulation. There is much more to be done, and not much hope in the public interest.

States can and must step it up—we need every and all climate action possible!
