This policy brief series focuses on federal government action that can move the United States closer to limiting warming to 1.5° Celsius, build a sustainable economy, and create lasting, quality jobs. The briefs contain recommendations for seven different sectors and change models. The featured ideas provide significant emissions reductions, as well as economic and other benefits. These ideas were developed with the current Biden/Harris administration and 117th Congress in mind and are built from RMI’s existing work and theory of change. RMI is available to provide more detailed support to policymakers to further develop any of these ideas.
