Description | In 2021, the Washington Legislature adopted an historic package of legislative and budget proposals to combat climate change and prepare our state for the future low carbon economy. Together with existing policies advancing clean energy and zero emission vehicles, these new laws put Washington on a path toward achieving the greenhouse gas limits set in state law: • 45% below 1990 levels by 2030 • 70% below 1990 levels by 2040 • 95% below 1990 levels • net zero carbon emissions by 2050. |
