Kentucky’s climate is getting warmer and wetter. The burning of fossil fuels is to blame.
The planet’s leading climate scientists warn humankind has not done enough to address climate change. Precious time remains to reduce our reliance on fossil energy.
State officials have no official targets to reduce emissions or to incentivize the use of renewable energy. Kentucky is one of just four states that didn’t apply for up to $3 million to create a climate action plan through the Inflation Reduction Act, according to the Kentucky Lantern.
Many of Kentucky’s elected leaders refuse to even acknowledge the realities of climate change. Others would prefer to use their political capital in pursuit of other interests.
