H 225 Vermont House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An act relating to conducting a climate health study

This bill requires Vermont to conduct a study on how climate change impacts air quality within the state, the resulting health effects on Vermonters, and the associated healthcare costs. It directly affects all Vermont residents by mandating an assessment of climate-related health risks and economic burdens. The key mechanism is a state-funded study to quantify these specific connections - air quality changes, health outcomes, and financial costs - without making new laws or regulations. The study's findings would inform future policy decisions but do not impose immediate requirements on individuals or businesses. (4 sentences)
