State and Local Net Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Programs

This database contains in-depth case studies on state and local programs that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Some programs were designed specifically to address climate change, but many were designed for other purposes: for example, to improve energy efficiency or to promote water conservation. All, however, directly or indirectly result in greenhouse gas reductions.

These case studies were written by Pew Center staff and by staff at the National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO). Some studies were adapted from the Pew Center report, "Greenhouse and Statehouse: The Evolving State Government Role in Climate Change [3]," by Barry Rabe, of the University of Michigan.
