Montana Climate Solutions Plan
In August 2020, the Montana Climate Solutions Council released the state’s first adaptation plan as one part of Montana’s overall climate change strategy, the Montana Climate Solutions Plan (“Plan”). Montana has been affected by climate change-related flooding events, drought, and wildfires. The state developed this climate strategy to mitigate and adapt to those effects in response to Executive Order 8-2019. The larger Plan also addresses reducing greenhouse gas emissions, advancing the research necessary to meet the state’s climate goals, and meeting the economic and occupational needs of workers in industries transitioning away from the use of fossil fuels.
