Dear John Wassam,

The earth is heating up which is causing the climate crisis, because we putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

In order help everyone, including yourself, to breathe clean air, and limit the climate crisis, do not weaken the Renewable Portfolio Standard classifications.

We must not incentivize the burning of wood or garbage.Massachusetts already has the highest levels of particulate pollution in New England from residential wood burning. Both garbage incinerators and biomass power plants release more CO2 emissions at the stack per megawatt hour than coal-fired power plants. All efforts should focus on carbon-free energy, such as solar and wind power.

 

 

Blue skies,
