Dear Mr. Wassam,



Please do not loosen the RPS regulations for the Commonwealth. Biomass is no long term solution to our green house gas (GHG) emission problem. We need to put all of our resources into finding the most cost effective, fair, far reaching solutions to reducing our GHGs and get us off of fossil fuels as quickly as possible and shift to renewables wherever we can. (For starters, why not fix the 7% fracked "natural" gas leaks that cause 50% of methane gas leaks???)



Please, keep our RPS standards as they are. My children - all children - depend on adults like you making the correct decisions so they have a livable planet.   Right now, our RPS regulations serve as a model - MA is a leader.  Please keep us on the right track - children everywhere are counting on you. 

 

Thank you.
