A limit on green house gas emissions- is necessary.
Couldn’t agree more!
I hope to be able to make it.

We need to pay attention to the benefits that a sound environment give to us citizens of MA also. I would suggest additional funding to conserving forested lands.
By regenerating our soil, particularly in farming, we begin to reverse the damage that farming has caused to the carbon cycle. Please pass the Healthy Soils Bill.
Has any action been taken to ENSURE that we will not run out of natural gas if we encounter a cold spell this winter (like we had a couple of years ago).
That’s a dynamic supply thing, that the utilities are responsible for. But I certainly understand the importance of meeting the supply needs of those who depend on natural gas.
I know Cape wind is dead – but it should not be and in fact a wind farm off Boston Harbor would be nice as well. I know people say it is ugly – even Cape Wind was far enough away from the cost that you would not see it. Then there is the argument about fishing- These areas with windmills would provide protected areas where the fish would be safe from harvest and an area where things like shell fish could grow and breed. I also think the same could be done off Gloucester as well. As long as it is 11 miles out (this is where the horizon drops off out of sight) no one can complain about the “Eye Sore”
