National objectives to reduce CO2 emissions by 20% on 1990 levels by 2010 and by 60% on 2000 levels by 2050. California: an objective to reduce CO2 States in the North-East and mid-Atlantic have set up US North East: RegionalGreenhouse Gas Initiative to cut emissions to 2005 levels between 2009 and 2015, and by a further 10% between 2015 and 2018.emissions by 80% on 1990 levels by 2050.
