Many thanks to those of you who signed on to our September 2013 letter from firms urging the Senate to retain the 2030 fossil fuel reduction targets for federal buildings. With your help, we succeeded in holding the line, and the federal 2030 targets are still in place. Now, the fight is heating back up as the Senate will soon hold hearings on energy legislation which would again seek to do away with 2030 targets. Will you sign on to our updated letter, which will again show our senators the importance of federal 2030 targets to the design industry?
The text of the letter is
here.
