Climate & Environment

CMTA and its members are committed to advancing environmental sustainability while continuing to drive economic growth and create high-quality jobs. California manufacturers are global leaders in innovation, and we believe climate policy should build on that strength—not undermine it.

To be effective across the state, climate policies must be cost-efficient, practical, and rooted in market-based solutions.

CMTA supports smart climate policies that:

Empower manufacturers to innovate and invest in cleaner, more efficient technologies.
Preserve California's global competitiveness by avoiding unnecessary regulatory burdens and costs.
Promote long-term economic growth while achieving measurable environmental benefits.

Environmental sustainability is essential to protecting our communities and maintaining a strong manufacturing economy. By pairing innovation with balanced, achievable policy, California can lead the way toward a cleaner future—one that keeps manufacturing and good jobs here at home.
