More than half of the energy consumed in Massachusetts goes to powering our homes and businesses.

Right now, towns and cities in Massachusetts aren’t permitted to require new and renovated buildings to be built to the greenest, most efficient standards. But state regulators are considering revising these rules.

Subject: Let our communities build green
Letter * To the Board of Building Regulations and Standards: I urge you to rewrite the rules so that cities and towns across the Commonwealth can require new and renovated buildings to be built to the greenest, most efficient standards. Our state is far too dependent on fossil fuels for our energy. But we have the technology and the know-how to make our homes and businesses far more efficient—and cut our carbon pollution and energy bills at the same time. Sincerely,
