Here’s how experts want to see Maine combat climate change in the next four years

MAINE MORNING STAR • June 3, 2024

Maine’s climate action plan is due for an update later this year, and experts have already put forward a draft of what they’d like to see included. Many of the suggested strategies build on the efforts outlined in the original climate action plan, but there are a few new proposals  — such as resiliency measures to address increasingly common spills from residential heating oil tanks and bolstering local food production. A survey is available on the council’s website for people to share suggested updates to the state’s strategies to address climate change.
