  • On December 8, 2015, Martin O'Malley wrote a brief op-ed for the Concord Monitor on climate change and clean energy, which includes implementing President Obama's Clean Power Plan setting new rules for reducing emissions. He said, “I’m the first candidate – and I hope not the last – to put forward a plan to power our country with 100 percent clean, renewable energy by 2050, while ending our reliance on fossil fuels. … As president, I will not only fully implement the Clean Power Plan, I will go further, setting targets for reducing emissions from other large sources and adopting a zero-tolerance policy for methane leaks from current oil and gas production. I will also fight for a cap or tax on carbon emissions and to set a national, cross-sector Renewable Electricity Standard so our nation is powered by 100 percent clean energy within 35 years." He continued, "With so much at stake [at the U.N. Climate Change Conference], it is disappointing that the other Democratic candidates for president haven’t released similarly ambitious plans. Secretary Clinton’s clean energy plan appears to be based on the voluntary adoption of solar panels. And Sen. Sanders’s plan, which he finally released Monday, appears to include weak carbon pollution reduction targets.”[2]
  • At the end of his term as governor of Maryland in 2014, O'Malley pushed for regulation of phosphorus run-off from farms.[3]
