Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds and declares that the use of fossil fuels result in greenhouse gas emis- sions. The state has a goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by eighty percent below 1990 levels by 2050 to combat climate change. Therefore, the state has an interest in reducing tax expenditures that support fossil fuels.

Subdivision 1 of section 181 of the executive law is amended by adding two new paragraphs (c) and (d) to read as follows: (C) "FOSSIL FUEL" SHALL MEAN COAL, KEROSENE, OIL, OTHER PETROLEUM PRODUCTS, AND FUEL GASES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO METHANE, NATURAL GAS, LIQUIFIED NATURAL GAS AND MANUFACTURED FUEL GASES. (D) "FOSSIL FUEL RELATED TAX EXPENDITURES" SHALL MEAN TAX EXPENDITURES THAT DIRECTLY SUPPORT, ENCOURAGE OR HAVE A SIGNIFICANT RELATIONSHIP TO THE PRODUCTION, TRANSMISSION, DISTRIBUTION, TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE, SALE, PURCHASE, DELIVERY, CONSUMPTION OR USE OF FOSSIL FUELS. § 3.
