Clean Wisconsin’s Reopelle said that Republicans who took control of state government in the 2010 elections have exhibited little interest in addressing climate change.

A state law requiring utilities to obtain 10 percent of their power from renewable sources, for example, has become the weakest among 29 states with such requirements, Reopelle said, noting that other states have set the bar as high as 40 percent.

Last year, the state cut $7 million from its renewable and energy efficiency fund, and Walker has signaled he wants to divert more from the fund and send it to internet providers to increase rural coverage.

The rewritten webpage is the first result returned in a search of the DNR website of the words “climate change.”

Earlier versions of the page introduced the problem in six paragraphs and included eight links to additional sources of information. The new version is two paragraphs and two links.
