The 2025-2028 update enhances the framework with new components like case studies, policy trackers, and additional critical topics, such as plastics, critical materials extraction, disinformation, false solutions, and non-farming outdoor labor. It introduces new sections on mining, battery recycling, and false climate solutions while expanding coverage of urban greening, worker protections, and climate migration; it addresses Spanish climate disinformation, rewrites the Puerto Rico section, and adds case studies on community solar, clean water access, and local fossil fuel bans.
