"In a stark contrast to recent election years, voters in just two states will decide on environmental issues this November. But there’s still a lot at stake."

"Every election year a handful of statewide ballot initiatives carry high stakes for the environment. In 2020 there were four major ones, including Colorado’s Proposition 114 requiring a plan for the reintroduction of gray wolves. There were even more in 2018, including battles in Nevada and Arizona over how much renewable energy to require from utilities, while Florida debated an offshore-drilling ban.

This year the biggest story about environmental ballot initiatives is that there are only two.

Cost could be one reason."
