The New Mexico Climate Change Task Force was created by Executive Order 2019-003 and chaired by the Secretaries of the New Mexico Environment Department and the New Mexico Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department.
During the spring of 2022, the Climate Change Task Force convened a Technical Advisory Group to advise on proposed climate actions to assess climate goals and implementing actions proposed by the Climate Change Task Force to help New Mexico meet its 2030 emissions reduction goal while strengthening its economy and integrating equity principles into its climate planning. The work of the Technical Advisory Group is available in the final report available here and continues to inform climate action planning.
