The Dashboard Digest is intended to serve as a resource to state policy actors who are seeking to increase their understanding of climate policies, learn from experts in each policy area, and view examples of states that have passed model policies.
Each Policy Area (Governance and Equity, Adaptation & Resilience, Electricity, Buildings & Efficiency, Transportation, Agriculture, and Industry, Materials & Waste Management) is broken down into categories of individual policies. The Dashboard Digest will examine each policy category through a guiding principle, framework, or theme to provide valuable context to analyze and design individual policies.
For each category, there will be a Policy Primer article that introduces the thematic framework for the policies that we track. Following this introductory article will be individual briefs on each policy including an in-depth description, policy components, and examples of model state policies that have been passed. We will utilize the strength of our State Climate Policy Network by including interviews with network members and stories from people on the ground working to pass climate policies.
Articles are released biweekly on Fridays. Stay tuned for updates on when new policy categories will be posted!
