Right now, some of the biggest threats to clean energy come from active policy choices to prop up the dirtiest, most expensive sources of electricity. State lawmakers can stop this:

Second: The electric sector is the domain of states. Without state renewables laws, there would be no renewables, period.
States made this market and this revolution that many are now calling "inevitable."
It is not inevitable. Feds and pro-fossil state legislators can do a lot to slow it.

In fact: the argument against states doing *even more* on transportation pollution relies on the federal government setting uniform standards. If there is no federal standard, that opens up some interesting legal questions here.

This biggest source of climate pollution in the country is car tailpipes, and the only (ONLY) federal climate law currently is some very inadequate car tailpipe pollution standards. Trump has already thrown even those out.
Fortunately: states have a lot of power here.
