Global Warming & Great Lakes
WJFW TV-12
Published February 19, 2008


SUN PRAIRIE - The Governor's Task Force on Global Warming today unanimously approved recommendations to cut energy use and erect wind turbines on Lake Michigan and Lake Superior.

Governor Doyle created the task force a year ago and asked members to come up with recommendations to reduce the state's greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 80 percent by 2050.

One idea is to reward power companies for generating less, not more, electricity and natural gas.

The recommendations will be forwarded to Governor Doyle. The group includes representatives of utilities, industry and conservation groups.
