Bill > SR36

This resolution affirms California's leadership and commitment to climate action by formally endorsing the goals of the Paris Accords and reaffirming the state's ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets. The resolution highlights California's proactive efforts to combat climate change, including achieving early emission reduction goals, mandating 100% clean electricity by 2045, supporting zero-emission vehicles, and investing in climate adaptation strategies. It emphasizes the state's commitment to reducing GHG emissions by 50-52% below 2005 levels by 2030 and 61-66% by 2035, while also recognizing the broader global context of climate change and its devastating effects, such as heat waves, drought, wildfires, and rising sea levels. The resolution calls for adopting net-zero and net-negative carbon dioxide emissions as state climate policy priorities and directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to key stakeholders, including the State Air Resources Board, the Governor, the President of the United States, the Secretary of State, and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
