El eje y del gráfico muestra los cambios en porcentaje desde el año 2000, comenzando en -60 % en la parte inferior, 0 % a un tercio de la altura y 100 % en la parte superior. El eje x representa el paso del tiempo, comenzando en el año 2000 a la izquierda y terminando en 2024 a la derecha. Tres líneas parten del punto inicial en 0 %. La línea gris oscuro muestra un aumento marcado del “Producto Interno Bruto (PIB) estatal”, terminando justo por encima del 80 % en el eje y.

📉 California cut climate emissions again in 2024 — statewide emissions fell another 3.9% in 2024 extending a 20-year downward trend even as the economy continues to expand. Two decades after AB 32, California’s climate progress continues delivering real progress. ➡️ buff.ly/zLXsrJY

The y axis of the line graph shows changes in percentage since the year 2000, starting from -60% at the bottom, 0% a third of the way up, and 100% at the top. The x axis is the passage of time starting from the year 2000 on the left, ending at 2024 on the right. Three lines emerge from the starting point at 0%.
