New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has announced six new steps to combat climate change, including a plan to build 400 new EV charging stations across the state, provide incentives for businesses to convert to electric fleets, and establish a state Office of Climate Action and the Green Economy. The announcement has received praise from environmental groups, but some business groups have raised concerns about the cost and feasibility of the proposals. Other steps include expanding offshore wind energy production, increasing solar energy use in the state, and funding environmental justice initiatives. The initiatives are part of Murphy's goal to achieve 100% clean energy by 2050.
