An Act relative to a stronger emissions limit to safeguard our environment

This bill amends Massachusetts state law to establish a mandatory statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit requiring the state to reach net zero by 2045. The change directly affects the state's environmental regulations by replacing previous, less specific emission targets with a concrete deadline for eliminating net carbon output. By updating the legal framework in Chapter 21N, the legislation mandates that future environmental plans must align with this stricter goal to safeguard the environment.
