RGGI is an evidence-based mechanism to help VA. Stay in.
 

Climate change is happening and will intensify. VA and Hampton Roads in particular, is being greatly affected. The RGGI is backed by scientists and economists to be a helpful part of the way VA can battle climate change. It helps preserve livelihoods and prosperity of Virginians while also protecting cultural and natural resources. It also lowers VA’s contributions to the causes of climate change. Stay in! For the sake of our collective futures and those of generations to come, stay in.
