Why are we here?? BAU Aggressive action agriculture may not even be possible Aggressive action

Why are we here?? ? my grandkids my kids me agriculture may not even be possible ? my grandkids my kids me

Greenhouse Gas Reduction Act (GGRA) - Mandate to reduce emissions 40% by 2030 - 10 main emissions-reduction programs EmPOWER MD– Great progress with legislation supporting the 2% annual demand reduction mandated by the PSC in 2015 RGGI now, Offshore Wind!! - GGRA will reduce emissions more than the Paris Accord, IF Gov. Hogan actually supports the key programs. Zero Waste? Forests? …. soils??? ID #1 - Can be used in noncommercial online and TV broadcasts of your presentation.   … DESCRIPTION: Blank slide

Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) - Cap and trade program to control CO2 emissions– 9 Northeast States- our mechanism to meet the CPPO - Emissions allowances are sold and states get the $$, state autonomy in spending - RGGI goals are to use the $$ for investment in energy efficiency and renewables - MD has legislative mandate to spend >=50% on bill paying assistance. ID #1 - Can be used in noncommercial online and TV broadcasts of your presentation.   … DESCRIPTION: Blank slide

RGGI is wildly successful Significant emissions reductions, $1.79 B to states and 30,000 job years created from 2009-14 When proceeds used for energy efficiency ID #1 - Can be used in noncommercial online and TV broadcasts of your presentation.   … DESCRIPTION: Blank slide

RGGI 2016 Program Review - Update: States meeting today to decide final modeling parameters - RGGI Advocates have urged 5% cap reduction - this is what we need to get us to 40% by 2030 - hopefully States will at least agree to model this - Decision in the fall? ID #1 - Can be used in noncommercial online and TV broadcasts of your presentation.   … DESCRIPTION: Blank slide

Offshore Wind!! - Update: PSC granted permission for both the US Wind and Skipjack projects! - about 450 MW total, increase power bill about $1.46/month but - Harvard analysis of OSW- a 200 MW windfarm will return $120/MWh in health benefits - average MD family uses 1MWh/month, so gets $120 average health benefit - will establish manufacturing facilities in Baltimore and on Eastern Shore. Jobs, Jobs, Jobs!! - MD will hopefully build turbines for East Coast wind industry ID #1 - Can be used in noncommercial online and TV broadcasts of your presentation.   … DESCRIPTION: Blank slide
