New Hampshire Climate Change Resolution
To see if the town will go on record in support of effective
actions by the President and the Congress to address the issue of climate
change which is increasingly harmful to the environment and economy of New
Hampshire and to the future well being of the people
of Holderness
These actions include:
- Establishment
of a national program requiring reductions of U.
S. greenhouse gas emissions while
protecting the U. S.
economy.
- Creation
of a major national research initiative to foster rapid development of
sustainable energy technologies thereby stimulating new jobs and
investment.
In addition, the town of Holderness
encourages New Hampshire citizens
to work for emission reductions within their communities, and we ask our
Selectmen to consider the appointment of a voluntary energy committee to
recommend local steps to save energy and reduce emissions.
The record of the vote on this article shall be transmitted
to the New Hampshire Congressional Delegation, to the President of the United
States, and to declared candidates for those
offices
