Biomas and incineration INCREASE CO2 levels and are NOT green energy.  We are in a climate emergency and Massachusetts should not be making it easier or subsidizing these energy sources as proposed in new RPS regulations.  It is not in the long term interest of the Commonwealth, our communities or residents to promote or subsidize biomas or incineration.  The consequences of climate change are threatening our way of life and no amount of preparedness will be enough. Why make it worse?

 

Please rescind your proposed RPS Regulations.
