Under the Climate Solutions Now Act (CSNA) that was passed into law in 2022, an even more ambitious emissions reduction target has been established at 60%. The Commission is now charged with developing proposals that allow the state to reach that target by 2031, and “net zero" by 2045.
Remind the reader why dealing with climate change matters, and highlight the points you've made. For example, if you discussed renewable energy or reforestation, emphasize how these solutions can make a real difference. Leave your reader with a sense of urgency but also hope — change is possible if we take action now.
Today, 195 Parties (194 States plus the European Union) have joined the Paris Agreement. The Agreement includes commitments from all countries to reduce their emissions and work together to adapt to the impacts of climate change, and calls on countries to strengthen their commitments over time.
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.
The Climate Solutions Now Act (CSNA) of 2022 requires Maryland to achieve a 60% reduction in GHG emissions (from 2006 levels) by 2031 and net-zero emissions by 2045. It establishes the most ambitious GHG reduction goals of any U.S. state.

Writing your climate story Tell a story about an experience that helped shape the person you are today. What is your experience of climate change? Tell a story about a time you felt resilient. “To create a better future, we must first imagine ourselves there.” IMAGINE… What would a better world look like to you?
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Such shifts can be natural, due to changes in the sun's activity or large volcanic eruptions.
Broadly, costs of inaction fall into two categories: Economic costs: Direct losses to GDP due to climate-related risks and impacts, and. Social costs: Indirect costs incurred due to negative climate-related impacts on people and/or their environments.
For 2035, we estimate global investment requirements for climate action to be around $7–8.1 trillion per year, with advanced economies needing $2.6–3.1 trillion, China $1.3–1.5 trillion, and EMDCs other than China requiring $3.1–3.5 trillion.
