This bill requires the Division of Environmental Protection to annually create an inventory of greenhouse gas emissions and develop strategies to reduce Nevada’s greenhouse gas emissions 28% by 2025 and 45% by 2030, from a 2005 baseline. This bill also calls for the executive branch to assess whether the above strategies will result in zero or near zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This bill will allow Nevada to start to act on climate change, improving public health, creating economic opportunities and protecting our priceless landscapes.
