Commemorative Months - Maryland Climate Education Month

HB 620 designates April as "Maryland Climate Education Month" each year. It requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation urging Maryland residents of all ages to participate in climate education activities and take actions supporting the state’s climate goals. The bill does not create new regulations or funding but establishes a symbolic annual observance. It directly affects the Governor (through the proclamation requirement) and Maryland residents (through the call to participate). The key mechanism is the mandatory annual proclamation with specific educational and action-oriented guidance.
