The Western Climate Initiative is hosting a teleconference tomorrow to fill people in on its work plan and take public comments. The group was started in February by the governors of WA, OR, CA, AZ and NM as a way to collectively commit to emissions reductions. UT, BC, and Manitoba have since joined.
