A list of 41 companies participating in a "voluntary" program launched by the federal Environmental Protection Agency in a quest to lower the amount of methane escaping into the atmosphere on the mistaken belief such methane contributes to mythical global warming.
The coming expiration of many policies and subsidies has raised concerns that the clean tech sector, and the pace of energy innovation in the U.S., may experience a collapse, much as it has in past years when funding similarly dried up.
Federal clean tech funding, Energy innovation, energy subsidies, cost declines in renewable energy.
Implementing an on-site energy strategy requires a solution to the barrier of upfront cost. The unique energy financing program known as Property Assessed Clean Energy can make launching an on-site solution project cash flow positive immediately!

Greenhouse Gas Regulations: Advising Clients in an Uncertain Legal EnvironmentDave Scriven-Young
Presentation to the Chicago Bar Association concerning efforts to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and curb climate change by Congress, the international community, U.S. federal agencies, and the courts.

April 21, 2010 - As the 111th Congress makes its spring and summer push for climate and energy legislation, at least four major proposals are under consideration. The proposals, similar in their intent to reduce carbon emissions and promote clean energy, differ in framework, reach, and importantly, the role of energy efficiency as a clean energy resource. Today, the Alliance to Save Energy held a webinar on alternative approaches to energy and climate.

The Report of My Death Was and Exaggeration: Renewables Portfolio Standards L...KFWreports
As of 2013, there are 29 states that have Renewables Portfolio Standards. There have been multiple media reports addressing attempts to weaken these standards across the country, but few have discussed the work being done to strengthen these standards. This report addresses both sides to the story.
ASBC Policy manager Eliza Kelsten discussed state-based carbon pricing proposals with VT State Representative Sarah Copeland-Hanzas and MA State Representative Jen Benson.
As the Coalition Government promises to tear out large sections of the rulebook and relax targets in an attempt to ease the strain on struggling UK businesses, it is tempting to conclude that environmental sustainability initiatives can be put on a backburner. In crisis mode, the country and its commercial entities surely have more pressing concerns?
Keeping the lights on remains one of them and this demands that organisations can continue to balance their books. Evidence has shown that there is a direct correlation between energy efficiency and cost efficiency for a business. As a result, the attention paid to carbon emissions monitoring and management is no longer something that is automatically handed over to corporate social responsibility and marketing teams.
At more astute companies, the discipline is now firmly on the radar of the finance department. If international pledges and government targets around global warming have done anything positive for businesses, it is to encourage them to measure and gain an appreciation for just how much wastage goes on in companies – and how much this is costing them.
The following white paper assesses the current landscape for carbon emission monitoring, exploring not only companies’ regulatory responsibilities for behaving in a more environmentally sustainable way but also how, through systematic, integrated measuring and reporting, they can substantially reduce their internal costs at a time when energy prices and other business costs are escalating at a punishing rate.

De leon petroleum reduction coalition letter 2.5.15
1. DRAFT
February 25, 2015
The Hon. Kevin de Leon
President pro Tem
California Senate
Capitol Building
Sacramento, California
Dear Senator de Leon:
We are writing today to express our disappointment with, and strong opposition to, your SB 350
which mandates a 50 percent reduction petroleum use by 2030. We understand that this goal
was identified in the Governor’s inaugural address earlier this year. However, there is a major
difference between articulating a goal as part of a forward-looking speech and enacting
enforceable mandates on fuel providers, motorists and others with the intent of reducing
consumption of a necessary source of energy.
We are particularly concerned that your pursuit of this legislation will detract from a far more
pressing discussion on strategies to reduce California’s greenhouse gas emissions. Many of
your colleagues have indicated their intention to introduce legislation to continue the
greenhouse gas reduction progress started by AB 32 after 2020. Your proposed legislation to
mandate petroleum reductions is inconsistent with a rational climate change policy discussion.
This arbitrary and infeasible mandate will inevitably and unnecessarily create a distraction from
constructive discussions on long-term climate emissions policies.
Legislative mandates to cut petroleum consumption are not the same as programs designed to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions. California has developed numerous programs and
strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In contrast, previous consideration of
petroleum reduction policies concluded that mandating arbitrary cuts in petroleum use would
impose unacceptable levels of costs and/or hardship on families and businesses.
We are confident an overwhelming number of California businesses and consumers would find
the policies and programs necessary to achieve a 50 percent reduction in petroleum
consumption wholly unacceptable
We urge you to abandon this reckless legislative initiative and instead join your colleagues in a
thoughtful, responsible examination of programs and policies that can help us achieve our
greenhouse gas emission goals without unnecessarily increasing energy costs for businesses
and consumers.
Sincerely,
