Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Vice President Kamala Harris’ newly announced running mate, has pushed aggressive climate and green energy policies during his tenure as governor. [emphasis, links added]
In 2023, Walz signed a law requiring that 100% of energy produced or acquired by the state must be carbon-free by 2040, a timeline even more aggressive than California’s 2045 deadline to reach 100% green energy generation.
Major environmental groups — including the Sierra Club, Climate Power, and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) Action Fund — have already come out in favor of Walz, calling him a “climate champion” and implying that he will pursue policies that transform the American economy by pushing it away from using fossil fuels.
