Step It Up Vermont Leaders: Cut Carbon 80% by 2050
I call on my Federal Representatives, to support legislation in the 110th Congress introduced by Senator Sanders in the Senate and Congressman Waxman in the House that would cut carbon emissions 80% by 2050.
I call on my Legislators and Governor Douglas, to enact policies to:
An energy efficiency utility with a mandate to help Vermonters conserve electricity and heating fuels backed by the funding it needs to be successful;
A renewable energy requirement that prioritizes the construction of wind, solar, hydro and biomass facilities to replace the 55% of our power that currently comes from polluting sources.
Transportation funding that invests in public transit and transit alternatives.
