The group tasked by Gov. Josh Shapiro with developing a state-level plan to fight climate change has started meeting.

“Governor Shapiro is focused on developing a comprehensive climate and energy policy that protects and creates energy jobs, takes real action to address climate change, protects consumers and ensures Pennsylvania has reliable, affordable, and clean power for the long term," Shapiro's office said.

Wolf called it a “historic, proactive and progressive approach." His administration estimated it would cut up to 225 million tons of carbon dioxide through 2030, compared to its estimate that Pennsylvania emitted 269 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalents in 2018. It was also opposed by coal- and gas-related interests that feared higher input costs, industrial and commercial power users that feared higher electricity bills and labor unions that feared its workers will lose jobs.

He called the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative “a vehicle” that could help meet Shapiro’s “strong and very aspirational goals” to help the environment.

If they don’t address EMS the rest of it is irrelevant- ask why Harrisburg truly refuses Tn do what needs done for emergency ambulance 🚑 service - It’s not tax credits

Climate change isnt real....its an excuse to tax you and to restrict your life while the ones who are promoting this still fly around in private planes, owns yachts, and have expensive cars

Lol. This ain't California

It would be a crime if they didn't consider clamping down on restrictive zoning, which forces people to live extremely wasteful lives in the suburbs as compared to the cities. dmtrubman
