The Motion Directs Berkshire Hathaway to Establish Goals for Reduction of Greenhouse Gases

The motion directs Berkshire Hathaway to establish quantitative goals for reduction of greenhouse gases and other error emissions at its energy generating holdings. The directors have recommended that the shareholders vote against the proposal. I will now recognize Brady Anderson and Lyndon Nicosie to present the motion to allow all interested shareholders to present their views. We applaud Berkshire Hathaway Energy for having the largest renewable energy portfolio in the country. But it is also true that BH Energy generates close to half its power by burning coal, which makes BH Energy a huge emitter of greenhouse gas. Given these facts, it would benefit BH Energy to have a carbon reduction plan.
