Florida Governor’s Action Team on Energy and Climate Change
Technical Work Groups
After submitting the Phase One report on November 1, 2007,
the Action Team began Phase Two of the process, which included a
facilitated stakeholder process conducted by the Center for
Climate Strategies. The Action Team evaluated long-term public
policies focused on reducing greenhouse gases while stimulating
economic development of alternative energies in Florida.
The Action Team, with the Center for Climate Strategies,
formed six Technical Work Groups (TWGs) to explore long-term
public policies focused on reducing greenhouse gases while
stimulating economic development of alternative energies in
Florida. The topics explored by the TWGs included exploring
carbon capture and storage technologies, university- based
research and technology development, pursuing energy
independence through domestic alternative energy sources,
protecting Florida’s environment and natural resources, and
planning for growth management and transportation. The six TWGs
were cap and trade design; energy supply and demand;
transportation and land use; agriculture, forestry and waste;
government policy; and adaptation. Each provided recommendations
for consideration by the Action Team for the Phase Two report.
