State Releases Roadmap to Achieve Net-zero Emissions by 2050 – BusinessWest
Building on its commitment to achieve net-zero greenhouse-gas emissions in the Commonwealth by 2050, the Baker-Polito administration released two reports — the Massachusetts 2050 Decarbonization Roadmap Report and an interim 2030 Clean Energy and Climate Plan — that detail policies and strategies to equitably and cost-effectively reduce emissions and combat climate change. To maximize the Commonwealth’s ability to meet its 2050 target, Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Kathleen Theoharides set an interim 2030 statewide emissions limit of 45% below 1990 levels.
