NEMA believes and supports the development of a climate policy that achieves greenhouse gas reductions at the lowest possible cost. This policy should encourage voluntary actions as a means of ensuring the most cost-effective reductions; address emissions of all greenhouse gases from all sources and sectors of the economy; offer an incentive to U.S. firms for their activities that sequester carbon from the atmosphere; offer enough lead time for compliance as well as the production of energy-efficient technology to meet demand; provide flexible market-based policies, such as emissions trading and the Clean Development Mechanism; encourage deployment of energy-efficient technologies; and require developing and developed nations to participate in an international agreement that seeks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
