The more than 40 mayors, town supervisors, and county executives in New York State who have signed the U.S. Mayors' Climate Protection Agreement represent well over half of all New York State residents. This agreement includes a pledge by those who sign to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (e.g., carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide) in their own communities to at least 7% below 1990 levels by 2012. This would have been the Kyoto Protocol target for the U.S. had this international global warming agreement been ratified by the federal government. Local Cool Cities campaigns are focused on convincing mayors or town supervisors to sign the U.S. Mayors' Climate Protection Agreement and after they have signed to follow through on their pledge to meet the greenhouse gas reduction target for their communities.
