Dear Mr.
Wassam,
I wish to
object to the proposed RPS changes to regulations on biomass energy. These
changes will roll back the intended protections in the Massachusetts biomass
rules, which should be strengthened, not weakened, to reflect the
now-understood urgency of climate change.
Please
count me as a Massachusetts resident and voter AGAINST the proposed changes to
allow what will be increases in CO2 emissions, and extend the timeframe of
‘benefit’ from 20 to 30 years, when we have only 10 YEARS OR LESS to reduce our
CO2 emissions to prevent serious and non-reversible changes to our environment.
I am the
grandmother of 4 small children - all under the age of 7 - and I am writing to
you in hopes that the changes will be rejected, to that my grandchildren and
all members of their generation might have a reasonable life on this planet.
With best
regards,
Patricia
