Green Police Hit the Water in the UK

January 14, 2010 College Preparedness No Comments

There’s a new patrol out looking for Carbon offenders. A green police brigade marks an evermore vigilant Eco-enforcement presence on the water. Cities such as New York and Los Angeles are among a few US cities that are joining in the global fight against emissions.

In a quote form Propel Earth Initiatives, a green friendly site showcasing the environmental initiatives from around the world, “The CRC was put into law to make medium-size and large companies increase their energy efficiency.”

More from that article:

“The green police will be a unit of fifty auditors and inspectors. The main focus will be the enforcement of the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC), which goes into effect this year. The green police officers will literally have green jackets, and will have the power to search company property, inspect power meters, and investigate electricity and gas bills, and track carbon-trading records for businesses across the UK.”
