States and territories across the country are significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions—all while building just, equitable and climate-resilient infrastructure, ecosystems, and communities.
This bold, sustained action ensures the U.S. continues to move closer to its climate goals, regardless of political and legal uncertainty at the federal level.
Holistic solutions to climate change require interventions at every level of society—from the way we power and build our homes to the ways we manage our lands and prepare for storms. As the laboratories of democracy, states play a key role in implementing these solutions.
State climate policy can arise from many different sources—the legislature, the governor's office, a regulatory agency—and undergo years-long development processes before implementation.
Tracking these policy developments from so many sources across such a diversity of states and topics can be overwhelming. This database aims to solve that issue by aggregating and displaying climate policies advanced by Alliance members.
