Greenhouse Gas Pollution Regulations
 

Virginia stands to suffers huge consequences from greenhouse gas pollution. Considering that the costs of being proactive are far less than those associated with the effects of health damage and sea level rise, the Air Pollution Control Board could be considered negligent for not acting to reduce pollution that has is already impacting Virginia residents and has the potential to have devastating impacts in the future. A great way to start is to reduce Total Carbon Dioxide Pollution in the Commonwealth by 30% by 2030 from Electric Generating Units.
