[6] He has championed several major bills to fight climate change, including the Clean Energy Transformation Act, requiring 100% clean energy in Washington; the low-carbon fuel standard; and the Climate Commitment Act, which intends to reduce carbon emissions with an emissions trading system, although Fitzgibbon stated there are not mechanisms to track whether the revenue raised by the legislation is spent effectively.
