The notoriously pro-coal state of Kentucky is at a crossroads even if its leaders aren’t campaigning on it…yet. While Republicans cling to coal, a clean energy revolution is happening in the state with at least three electric vehicle factories breaking ground this year and next, thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act. A few Democrats are campaigning on clean energy, notably the potential for reusing brownfields for solar energy. A few more in eastern Kentucky are connecting the dots between devastating floods and climate change. We expect more climate hawks to emerge with the growth of clean energy jobs.
In the meantime, vote for Charles Booker.
