Cracking Down on Greenhouse Gases

A new agreement between seven northeast states, including New Hampshire, is the first regional effort in the nation to limit the amount of carbon dioxide emitted from power plants. We’ll talk about the recently unveiled “Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative”, how it works, and why some states, like Massachusetts, have not signed on. Laura is joined by Dale Brick, Senior Attorney at the Natural Resources Defense Council. We will also hear from Bob Scott, Director of the Air Resources Division at the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, Ian Wilson, Director of Corporate Communications at Public Service of New Hampshire, Michael Giamo, Vice President of Public Policy at the New Hampshire Business and Industry Association, and George Ganz, Senior Vice President of Unitil.
