Governor's Task Force on Global Warming
Technical Advisory Group

Objectives:

1. Understand WRI's inventory, and provide comments and input to improve that inventory as it is used for the Task Force's purposes;
2. Carefully vet on the assumptions that are used by WRI and others in supporting the Task Force with emissions impacts and cost estimates, the reference case and the modeling we do and define the sensitivities that will need to be run in order to establish reasonable ranges of outcomes that give us confidence for decision-making; and
3. Recommend the models and related consultants to be used for the two modeling exercises, based upon a review of alternatives and the best understanding we can achieve of the strengths and shortcomings of the models and consultants, what they can and cannot do and performance experience, including the sophistication of models and the competence of the people who will be doing the work.
