Bill > S2092

This bill establishes new greenhouse gas emissions limits for the years 2030 and 2040, requiring these limits to be set at levels that maximize the ability to meet the existing 2050 emissions reduction goal, and mandates that the 2030 limit be between 35% and 45% below 1990 levels, while the 2040 limit will be between 55% and 65% below 1990 levels. Furthermore, the bill introduces a new chapter focused on Comprehensive Adaptation Management Action Planning in Response to Climate Change, which defines terms like "Adaptation" and "Resilience" and requires the development of a comprehensive plan by the secretaries of energy and environmental affairs and public safety and security to guide state agencies, authorities, and regional planning agencies in addressing climate change consequences, including assessments of vulnerabilities and strategies for infrastructure, natural resources, and economic impacts, with a new advisory commission to assist in this process and a grant program to support regional adaptation planning.
