Abstract:

In 2001, the governors of the six New England states made an historic commitment to reduce their region's emissions of global warming pollution. A Blueprint for Action documents how Massachusetts could make major strides toward reducing emissions of global warming gases over the next several decades by adopting a series of policy strategies to improve energy efficiency and reduce the use of fossil fuels.
