#  Wyoming and Climate Change: Examining the Costs and Claims of Carbon Reduction

  [Energy and Resources](https://wyliberty.org/blog/energy-and-resources)   [Regulation](https://wyliberty.org/blog/government-regulation)

  Friday, 15 March 2024

What would carbon-capture programs and carbon dioxide emission restrictions mean for Wyoming? *Wyoming and Climate Change: CO₂ Should Be Celebrated, Not Captured*, published by the CO₂ Coalition, challenges widely accepted claims about carbon dioxide, climate trends, and the need for costly emission-reduction policies.

The report examines Wyoming-specific data involving temperature, precipitation, snowfall, severe weather, agriculture, and plant growth. It argues that historical observations do not support predictions of worsening climate conditions in Wyoming and questions whether carbon-capture projects would produce measurable environmental benefits. Readers can explore the report's evidence and conclusions while considering the economic and public-policy consequences these initiatives could have for Wyoming taxpayers, agriculture, energy development, and rural communities.
