AB 491

Codifying Nature-Based Solutions in State Climate Policy

This bill would have codified the Natural Resources Agency’s science-based targets for nature-based climate solutions. AB 491 aligns with the 2024 Climate Bond (Proposition 4) to promote restoration, conservation, and stewardship across the entire state to store carbon, avoid emissions, and increase the resilience of communities and landscapes.
