Write your legislators to ask how they plan to guide the state to meet the greenhouse gas reduction goals set out in Title 10 and insist that any such plan be aggressive and supported by evidence that it will get us to the reductions goals by 2028 and 2050
TITLE 10 § 578. GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION GOALS (a) General goal of greenhouse gas reduction. It is the goal of the state to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases from within the geographical boundaries of the state and those emissions outside the boundaries of the state that are caused by the use of energy in Vermont in order to make an appropriate contribution to achieving the regional goals of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases from the 1990 baseline by: (1) 25 percent by January 1, 2012; (2) 50 percent by January 1, 2028; (3) if practicable using reasonable efforts, 75 percent by January 1, 2050. |
