CO 2 emissions remain mostly level through 2050—nowhere close to meeting US climate goals. Carbon emissions remain high. This is in total opposition to the US commitment under the Paris Agreement to achieve a 50-52 percent emissions reduction below 2005 levels by 2030, and net-zero by 2050.

RGGI is a cap-and-invest program that would regulate carbon emissions from power plants. RGGI states are also “on track to achieve reductions of GHG emissions of 45 percent below 2005 levels by 2020”, according to the study. In the states in which it has been implemented, it has saved lives by reducing air pollution.
