- Florida’s gubernatorial race features two candidates with very different views on the environment and climate.
- One candidate largely supports maintaining the status quo in state policy rather than changing the state’s existing approach.
- The other candidate advocates renewing Florida’s climate-change and clean-energy strategy, presenting a distinct alternative to the status quo.
- Inside Climate News highlights data centers, power bills and hurricanes as environmental stakes in Florida’s Senate race.
Why it matters: With two candidates offering opposite approaches, Florida’s result determines whether the state retains its current policy or renews its climate-change and clean-energy strategy. The race therefore turns a broad environmental debate into a direct choice over the policy direction governing the state.
