Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon's Green Agenda: Promoting Innovation and Climate-Friendly Plans

Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon, a Republican in a conservative state known for its coal production, is championing climate-friendly energy projects and action to address the climate crisis. Despite pushback from some within his own party, Gordon has set a goal of making Wyoming carbon negative and is pursuing an "all-of-the-above" energy policy that includes wind power, nuclear energy, and carbon capture technology. The state is home to the largest wind farm in the continental United States and plans to build an 800-mile transmission line to send the power to California. Gordon believes that embracing innovation and reducing regulatory barriers are key to achieving a carbon-neutral future.
