Recent actions and results

Environment America was successful in persuading the International Codes Council to increase the energy efficiency of their national model codes. The 2009 IECC will make new homes up to 20 percent more energy efficient.

More state action

The Maryland House of Delegates recently passed House Bill 315, Greenhouse Gas Reduction Act. The bill requires Maryland to reduce its global warming pollution 25 percent below 2006 levels by the year 2020. These reductions will be achieved through energy efficiency programs, increased transportation options, recycling, and incentives for green buildings, as well as pre-existing provisions established in the Healthy Air Act and the Clean Cars Act. Environment Maryland championed this bill and applauds the efforts of the Maryland State Government to reduce global warming pollution.

Sign the petition:

I support President Obama's plan to take on global warming. His plan will cap carbon pollution and make the big polluters pay $650 billion over the next 10 years, so we can promote clean energy and green jobs and invest in our families and our future. I support including the president's plan in the federal budget. Let's take this critical step toward a clean energy economy and an end to the climate crisis.
