What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

In 1961, John F. Kennedy proposed the goal of landing a man on the moon before the decade was out, a vision that opened funding for NASA's Apollo program. In contrast, Governor Wes Moore certified Maryland's current climate goals in a June 2024 executive order. These goals include achieving net zero emissions by 2045, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 60% below 2006 levels by 2031, and reaching 100% clean energy by 2035.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The certification of these goals establishes clear mandates for the state of Maryland. The requirement for 100% clean energy by 2035 could necessitate significant changes to the state's energy infrastructure and investment.
