AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Climate Policy Watch: Rhode Island’s Environment Council says the state has slowed climate action in the past two years, with fewer of its priority bills passing and groups now “playing defense” ahead of the Sept. 9 primary. Local Food & Housing: A Rhode Island Food Policy Council questionnaire found only two gubernatorial candidates responded, while Providence voters will soon weigh another $25M housing-bond plan aimed at income-restricted units. Renewables & Land Use: A Brown University “Possibly” episode digs into what “better” for the environment really means as Rhode Island pushes toward 100% renewables by 2033—while solar development can mean cutting forests. Community & Access: URI’s Free Farmers Market returns Sept. 10 with weekly, on-campus produce for students. Air Quality & Health: California and other states join an FTC lawsuit accusing Amazon of misleading ad pricing—more about consumer harm than the environment, but it’s the week’s biggest policy/legal headline. Wildlife & Habitat: British Columbia’s proposed extension of wolf culling for declining caribou faces criticism that habitat loss, not wolves, is the real driver.
