In MA, buildings represent the 2nd largest source of climate pollution. Incentives such as rebates make it easier for homeowners to convert to climate-friendly electrical systems.

A failure to consider these factors risks economic hardship not only for those who will be put out of work, but also families desperate for affordable housing and already struggling with high energy costs. Most importantly, it risks the safety of MA citizens. #NetZeroMA (4/4)

Between now and 2050, we ask legislators to ensure pipelines for natural gas or other fuels remain safe, to keep union workers on the job, to retain critical maintenance programs for this infrastructure, and to transition our workforce to new technologies. #NetZeroMA (3/4)

Our natural gas infrastructure remains an essential fuel source for providing reliable, affordable heat to our homes, and our overburdened electric grid cannot accommodate the additional pressure caused by an immediate switch to all-electric power. #NetZeroMA #maPoli (1/4)

Climate change requires a whole-of-economy decarbonization. This Senate bill targets each sector and will help to close the gap to reach our near- and long-term goals.
Thank you @KarenSpilka, @SenRodrigues, @BarrettSenate, @cindycreem for your leadership.

“It is clear that we are not on track...absent significant additional policy intervention, MA is poised to badly miss the mark.” -@EHenryELM, ELM President
But, she states, we can still get MA on track - something ELM is tracking with our tool #NetZeroMA: wbur.org/news/2022/04/04/ipc…

The new IPCC report says the world need to get to net-zero by 2050 to limit warming.
MA has similar 2050 emissions targets. But are we on track to reach them?

We need to hold our elected and appointed officials accountable for reaching our mandated greenhouse gas reductions. Check regularly on netzeroma.org to monitor deadlines included in the law to determine if we are meeting them or lagging behind.

The new appliance standards will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save consumers money. It is estimated that in 2025 alone, the new standards will save over $100 million and cut carbon dioxide emissions by 113,000 metric tons. netzeroma.org/

MA's 2021 #NextGenerationRoadmap Act is one of the strongest climate laws in the nation. We need to hold our officials accountable to reaching its mandates. ELM created a new website to track key deadlines & actions included in the law:netzeroma.org/
