With a lack of leadership on climate policy from the federal government, Colorado cities have a unique opportunity to lead on climate. Many cities have taken action on emission reductions, significantly improving air quality and paving the way for states to set more ambitious climate and electrification goals. Cities have led the way to cleaner energy in the electricity sector with ambitious renewable energy commitments, and they can do the same in the transportation sector by setting bold targets for electric vehicle (EV) adoption, and by implementing policies and strategies to kick the EV transition into high gear.
