On Monday, April 3, 2023, Maryland Governor Wes Moore hosted a climate roundtable to announce a new partnership between the Center for Global Sustainability (CGS) at the University of Maryland and the Maryland Department of Environment (MDE) to model and reveal a feasible, implementable pathway to achieve Maryland’s ambitious climate goals.
At the Maryland State House, CGS Director Nate Hultman, Research Director Ryna Cui, and Post-Doctoral Associate Kathleen Kennedy joined MDE Secretary Serena Mcllwain and additional analytical experts from MDE, community leaders, and policymakers to discuss this partnership and how this partnership can achieve an all-of-society, comprehensive plan to achieve 60% emissions reductions by 2031 and net-zero emissions economy by 2045 in Maryland.
