About the Maine Climate Council
On June 26, 2019, Governor Janet Mills and Legislature created the Maine Climate Council, an assembly of scientists, industry leaders, bipartisan local and state officials, and engaged citizens to develop a four-year plan to put Maine on a trajectory to reduce emissions by 45% by 2030 and at least 80% by 2050. The plan was delivered to Governor Mills on December 1, 2020.
The interactive displays of the Maine Cimate Impact Dashboard show how Maine’s health, economy, and communities may be affected by a changing climate. Mainers can use these tools and data to better understand these impacts and to advance climate mitigation and resilience efforts in Maine communities.
Through grants and direct support to municipal and tribal governments and unorganized territories, the Community Resilience Partnership assists communities to reduce carbon emissions, transition to clean energy, and become more resilient to climate change effects such as to extreme weather, flooding, rising sea levels, public health impacts, and more.
