The New York State Senate Majority today introduced legislation that would cut the state’s climate change pollution from all sources—cars, trucks, factories, homes, and more—80 percent by 2050. Senate Bill 8390, known as the “Greenhouse Gas Pollution Control Act,” was introduced by Senator Thomas Morahan (R-Rockland) and is cosponsored by Senators Flanagan, Fuschillo and Padavan.
The bill is nearly identical to the Global Warming Pollution Control Act, which was introduced earlier this year in the State Assembly and passed on April 15th as part of the Assembly’s Earth Day agenda. Assembly Bill 10303 is sponsored by Environmental Conservation Committee Chair, Assemblyman Robert Sweeney (D-Lindenhurst).
