2024 IN Governor's race: on Environment


Mike Braun: Farmers try to prosper while attacked by climate alarmists

Hoosier family farms feed the world with millions of acres of crops, livestock, and poultry raised and processed across our state. Farmers are doing all they can to prosper in the face of attacks from climate alarmists, the increasing cost of inputs, and corporate consolidation. Mike Braun will put family farms first so we can preserve this way of life for the next generation.

Suzanne Crouch: No ESG: don't invest based on environmental ratings

Q: Should ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?

A: No. Environmental and social issues, like ESG ratings should never be used as criteria for investing public monies. As a former Ways & Means Committee Chair & State Auditor, I know that when it comes to investing public monies the primary goal is prudently investing funds establishing transparency and seeking reasonable returns to stretch public dollars as far as possible.

Eric Doden: Knocked EPA for coercing states to shut down power plants

When Reliable Energy asked the candidates how they'd handle rising demand and anticipated supply challenges, several said they'd keep coal-powered plants open. Chambers said he'd resist U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) "pressure for premature closure of Indiana's coal-fired power plants," while Doden knocked the agency for "coerc(ing) states nationwide into shutting down local power plants."
