Currently, the United States is facing an escalating environmental crisis, as the risk of wildfires is intensifying and in turn causing an increase in pollution. These environmental challenges are reshaping the nation's landscape and posing a significant threat to public health. Historically, the United States has tackled wildfires through a combination of prevention, monitoring, and management methods. This includes ignition management, technological advancements, and the Clean Air Act (CAA). Yet, due to the increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires increased support is needed.

Government investment in carbon mitigation and reduction solutions and technologies is critical to allow companies to scale. To meet the Paris Agreement goals, investments from all levels of government alongside private investment will be required to help companies develop the technologies required to achieve the goals of reducing carbon emissions and carbon removal. Maryland took a step in that direction by announcing a $130 million in Climate Pollution Reduction Grants, through the EPA. https://lnkd.in/d83AV92N

😍 I'm so glad to see funding for these types of projects! Now is a great time to transition into #Sustainability in all the ways! "Those who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it." The funding goes toward two major initiatives: 🚚 1. Clean Corridor Coalition (led by New Jersey): infrastructure to support zero-emission medium and heavy-duty vehicles (this is not passenger cars) along I-95 🌳 🐸 2. Climate Pollution Reduction Grants Atlantic Conservation Coalition (led by North Carolina): natural carbon sequestration through improved forest management, agroforestry, and the protection and restoration of highly threatened, high-carbon coastal habitats and forests
