ACCOUNTABILITY
While California had some huge climate victories in 2023, this progress was undercut by actions and policies that moved us in the opposite direction on environmental protection and climate leadership. California’s actions must match the scale of the crisis. For taking one step backward for every two steps forward, California earned an 86% score in the 2023 California Environmental Scorecard.
