NC League of Conservation Voters’ Dan Crawford on building on NC’s environmental accomplishments

NC Newsline

As has been the case for several years now, at the start of 2025, no single issue poses a greater threat to the long-term well-being of North Carolinians – and indeed, all Americans — than the global climate crisis. From the economy to public health to natural disasters to immigration to species extinction, global warming from fossil fuel use is rapidly and negatively transforming our planet.

Fortunately, all hope is not lost. As North Carolina League of Conservation Voters Director of Governmental Relations Dan Crawford explained in a recent excellent op-ed for NC Newsline, North Carolina has made a good deal of encouraging progress on the environmental policy front in recent years and is poised to build on those accomplishments in 2025. And recently we caught up with Dan to learn what some of our priorities should be in the new year.
