New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has warned of her state's climate law's effect on home heating bills and prices at the pump.

Many states that enacted ambitious emissions reduction goals are balking at carrying out the far-reaching measures needed to meet them.

Canada is dealing with a conservative offensive against its carbon tax, too.

The gulf between rhetoric and reality on cutting emissions is starting to appear insurmountable, jeopardizing states' ability to continue making headway in fighting global warming.

Environmental advocates point out that there are many factors behind high energy prices, including volatile fossil fuel costs and aging gas infrastructure.

Republican victories in 2024 are threatening to stifle climate action further.
