Talk:Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative

message: I'd like to recommend adding the sentence below after the second paragraph in the history section: 
Environmental organizations and businesses, including Conservation Services Group, have advocated in favor of RGGI. 
A citation that can go at the end of this sentence is:

message: I currently serve as Communications Director at RGGI, and we would like to suggest some additions and edits to the RGGI Wikipedia page. However, I know that making edits directly might violate the Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines. Given this, what would be the best process for us to try to make updates to the page? I was thinking I could write some updates and post them on this Talk page, for consideration by other editors. Does that make sense or should I do something else? Sorry if my question is stupid, but this is my first time trying to update a Wikipedia entry. Brownmjason (talk) 20:32, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: The article has an accurate, if slightly vague, statement about Pennsylvania membership being "pending" - that seems sufficient until and if it fully joins. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 18:46, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

message: Anyone with any real knowledge of they Kyoto treaty would know that it has little to do with reducing greenhouse gases.  One clear example of this is china who is quickly becoming the number 1 nation in greenhouse gas emissions is exempt from the treaty.  There are many clear examples that they Kyoto treaty is more about redistributing wealth then reducing green house gases.  Regardless if you agree with the above statement, the RGGI has never even hinted a support of the Kyoto protocol.  After an hour of search I can't find a single governor or mayor that joined the RGGI that has stated on record that the US should ratify Kyoto.  In all reality RGGI is an alternative to Kyoto.   I know there are a handful of politicians that are on records supporting the ratification of Kyoto so I am sure someone could find some names I am just saying that I looked and found none.
My point is that the RGGI was set up as an alternative to Kyoto, as Kyoto is so flawed that most politicians who support Greenhouse gas controls reject the Kyoto Protocol.  
Because of this I have deleted the 2 mentions of Kyoto from this article because Kyoto can not accurately be connected to Kyoto.Mantion (talk) 11:57, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Greenhouse Gas/Kyoto

message: I went ahead and I moved a portion regarding the Memorandum of Understanding to the RGGI history section.  It is not a part of the Climate Change Action Plan 2001.  Due to the action plan being a much larger topic and a resolution of its own, prior to and separate from the RGGI (notability - same as RGGI, Midwestern Governors Association Greenhouse Gas Initiative, etc.), I went ahead and I did a little bit of information lookup and collection, and formed a new topic here.  I don't know if the section should be removed and a link added, or kept how it is now.  Go ahead and give suggestions. --Dpaulat (talk) 17:36, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Climate Change Action Plan

message: I’ve removed the quote from Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf (under Projected Benefits of RGGI in Pennsylvania) given that greenhouse gas emissions reductions referenced in the quote will come from the state's broader climate action plan and not just RGGI. The climate plan includes strategies and initiatives beyond RGGI. JetGreen40 (talk) 17:24, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I’ve edited the language pertaining to Pennsylvania's projected benefits, but it may make more sense to leave this information out of this section entirely. JetGreen40 (talk) 15:04, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
