AI Summary
This bill, the Clean Future Act, establishes greenhouse gas emissions limits for New Mexico, requiring a 50% reduction in statewide direct emissions by 2030 and net-zero total emissions by 2050. It requires state entities to report on climate impacts and progress towards meeting these limits, and directs the Environmental Improvement Board to adopt rules to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including requirements for emissions reporting, limits, offsets, and fees to cover administrative costs. The bill also creates a State Climate Fund to support the implementation and enforcement of these new regulations.
