ICYMI: President Joe Biden signed the Good Samaritan Act into law. This is a policy win for nature and climate. Co-sponsored by Rep. Mary Petola, the law allows state agencies, non-profits, and others to remediate damage from abandoned hardrock mines. Along with restoring waterways, this new law will help create enabling conditions for clean and renewable energy developers to build on former mines. To quote TNC CEO Jennifer Morris, “When clean energy is sited on former mines, it can help avoid converting green spaces for the clean energy transition. But the expenses of mine cleanup liability have prevented many developers from considering these sites, leaving them a largely untapped resource across the country. The passage of this act helps set the stage for reusing hardrock mines to improve the health of communities and the planet.” Learn more about how mines can be used for the clean energy transition in TNC’s Mining the Sun report.
