An appeals court Wednesday upheld a ruling that rejected a long-running legal battle over state conservation funding. Spokesmen for the Sierra Club and Florida Wildlife Federation criticized the ruling, saying the Court of Appeals disregarded the will of a majority of Florida voters again.“This is a disappointing result for the people of Florida, who clearly directed that their tax money go to preserving land for future generations,” said Earthjustice Attorney Alisa Coe.

The City of Sarasota has announced that it will move forward to meet its goal of 100% renewable energy generation by 2045. In collaboration with the Sierra Club, the Race to Zero campaign and local partners and communities, the city will be working to identify how to create a more affordable and equitable clean energy future.
