Decarbonization goals
 

Departure from Region greenhouse gas initiative would place the Commonwealth in a place to fail to meet goals. The exit scheme leaves error in the plan and actions to allow our economy to operate as the entire planet decarbonizes each energy sector. 

carbon dioxide is in the atmosphere for 300-1000 years.  So rushing to start and end implementing does not make any sense except that the given is incapable of making work outside his small partisan nonsense lens. Take time to implement our laws effectively 

by law Virginia must reduce emissions.  What we do now will make what we do later even easier.
