  • State Representative Pam Richardson Hosts Global Warming Discussion Tuesday, July 1st

    Environment Massachusetts Rep leading discussion

    June 30, 2008  (15:13:16 EST)

    FRAMINGHAM, MA — Representative Pam Richardson (D-Framingham) will be hosting a discussion about the Global Warming Solutions Act which is currently pending in the State Legislature. A representative from the Advocacy Group, Environment Massachusetts will be leading the discussion.

    “The state of our environment and the impact of carbon emissions on climate change is something we cannot ignore,” said Richardson (D-Framingham). “Having this discussion in Framingham will allow my constituents the opportunity to discuss Global Warming and learn about the ways in which we can work together to address this important issue.”

    The Global Warming Solutions Act would require a 20ut in state carbon emissions below 1990 levels by the year 2020, and an 80 0rop by 2050. This initiative would allow the Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs to take steps necessary to reduce emissions. The bill has passed the Massachusetts Senate, and the House awaits the opportunity to vote on this measure.

    The discussion will take place on Tuesday, July 1st from 7:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. at Representative Richardson’s district office which is located at 25 Nicholas Road, the Pinefield Shopping Center, in Framingham.

    All are welcome to attend this important discussion. For more information contact Jake Oliveira at 508-405-0968.
