About the Conference
Governor Whitmer committed Michigan to carbon neutrality by 2050 and in April 2022 released the MI Healthy Climate Plan (the Plan) to chart Michigan’s path forward. We are dedicated to reaching our interim 2030 goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 52% from 2005 baselines in an equitable manner. While we tackle this challenge with great urgency, we also find hope and inspiration in the collective community taking climate action in Michigan. The Plan builds off the leadership of tribal communities and cities and towns across Michigan, in addition to the private sector.
As we continue working together toward a carbon neutral Michigan, EGLE is hosting this one-and-a-half-day MI Healthy Climate Conference to report on the progress of the Plan, build connections and empower collaboration, leverage resources and mobilize opportunities, and prioritize our next steps towards reaching the goals of the Plan. This conference is expected to draw more than 800 attendees from local, state, federal, and tribal governments, universities, nonprofits, community groups, and businesses.
Under the theme "Road to 2030," speakers will share about their success stories, challenges, funding opportunities, technical assistance, and other actions they are taking in the six priority areas of the Plan:
1. Commit to environmental justice and pursue a just transition
2. Clean the electric grid
3. Electrify vehicles and increase public transit
4. Repair and decarbonize homes and businesses
5. Drive clean innovation in industry
6. Protect Michigan’s land and water
Register today and help shape Michigan’s collective journey to carbon neutrality!
