Conservative Utah Leaders Voice Support For Climate Action

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — More than 100 state leaders have signed what they are calling the first-ever Utah Climate and Clean Air Compact.

The compact calls on state and local leaders to adopt seven major climate recommendations laid out in the Utah Roadmap. The roadmap is a report commissioned by the state Legislature that recommends seven goals to improve air quality and address the impacts of climate change over the next 30 years.

Those involved in the compact also pledge to act as responsible stewards of the environment and address a wide range of climate and clean air challenges.
