🌍 Two years after the Inflation Reduction Act (#IRA) was passed, its impact on climate action is clear—but not widely recognized. Despite the significant progress in clean energy and climate solutions, most Americans remain unaware that this landmark law is helping the climate. The challenge now is to better communicate these successes and connect them to everyday lives. Effective communication of the IRA's benefits is crucial to gathering broader support for climate action. Let's bridge the gap between policy and public awareness to build stronger support for climate initiatives. https://lnkd.in/dUdgKcjA

The lessons from this ongoing saga extend beyond Washington because they illuminate climate policy’s political challenges. Here's our analysis: https://lnkd.in/gPJjVH5P

“The stakes are high for California to follow through on the commitments that it made.” Those were the words of Pollination's Head of Americas John Morton, who recently sat down with the Financial Times to talk about the importance of California standing behind the climate disclosure bills passed last year and ensuring that funds are allocated in the current state budgeting process. Passed in October, California Senate Bills (SB) 253 and 261 were the first significant corporate climate disclosure requirements in the United States, with SB 253 requiring firms with annual revenue over $1 billion to annually disclose Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas emissions, and SB 261 requiring those with annual revenues over $500 million to biennially report their climate-related financial risks.

Despite contrasting political preferences and complex ideological differences plaguing Americans in light of the upcoming presidential election, on climate change it seems the question for voters is clear: do you believe in climate change or not? “vice president Harris cast the tiebreaking vote in the passage of the Biden administration’s signature achievement on climate change, the Inflation Reduction Act…The most far-reaching climate law in history” “In contrast, Trump has falsely called climate change a hoax. During his term as president, ‘he overturned an estimated 100 environmental regulations and pulled the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement. He shrank the EPA and required that the words ‘climate change’ be removed from its website. On the campaign trail this time, he has repeatedly said one of his top priorities is to boost oil and gas production and free up more public land to ‘Drill, baby, drill.’ If Trump wins a second term as president, he and his allies say they aim to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act and downsize the EPA. “ https://lnkd.in/gsgc3baq #uselection #presidentialdebate #kamalaharris
