Support Bold Solutions: Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy
Global warming will impact us all to some degree, but we have a choice as to how serious it will be. Scientists tell us we need to make 80% cuts in global warming pollution by 2050 to avoid the worst impacts. It is up to us to demand that decision-makers act to meet with target and stabilize the climate.
Clean Water Action is currently working with the Massachusetts Climate Coalition to support legislation that will expand energy efficiency, lower energy bills, and make our air cleaner. We need to:
- expand current electricity efficiency programs to capture all cost - effective efficiency, create mandatory efficiency programs for home heating fuels (oil and natural gas),
- update energy company incentives so that efficiency can compete on a level playing field,
- create incentives for green buildings.
Clean Energy makes sense for Massachusetts.
Ask your State legislators and Governor Patrick to commit to 80% reductions in global warming pollution by 2050.
