Maryland to launch study on economic impacts of climate change
CBS News Baltimore ^ | December 12, 2025 | By JT Moodee Lockman

Maryland will launch a study to analyze the economic impacts of climate change to determine the costs associated with storm damage and health outcomes.

The move is part of the Moore-Miller administration's strategic approach to investing in a clean energy economy and modernizing the state's energy infrastructure.

"While the federal government has spent the past year rolling back climate protections and driving up energy costs, Maryland is taking a responsible step toward understanding the true price tag of climate change," Gov. Wes Moore said in a statement. "This study will give us a clear, data-driven look at the real burden taxpayers are shouldering as climate change drives more extreme and costly weather events."

The RENEW Act Study will be funded by investments and state sources, including $30,000 from philanthropic funding and $470,000 from the Strategic Energy Investment Fund, to assess the burden that Marylanders are paying due to intense weather events and environmental shifts.

Gotta keep the grift going.

Instead of actually producing modern power plants or more secure and efficient energy infrastructure like wiring and relay stations they’re going to just throw away money on analysts?

All you have to do is look at the German economy to see what green energy can do.

Well we see that the flint knapping industry absolutely collapsed. Definately due to climate change.

What a dope. An illiterate and innumerate cotton picker thinks he's going to master (oops!) control the climate.

Yep, the money is granted on the assumption that climate change is a man-caused event and that if they pour enough money into the rat hole, it will be solved.

Is Wes More broke and looking for even more tax payer dollars to steal?
That's the only thing to think of when Democrats start bleating about “climate Change”.
