NEW YORK (Reuters) – U.S. citizens will not have to drive less or read in the dark to slash greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, but they will have to buy more efficient cars and appliances, a report from two business groups said on Thursday.
“You may have different lightbulbs, and your car may be made of different materials, but basically we’ve assumed that consumer lifestyles stay constant,” Jack Stephenson, a director at McKinsey & Company, a business consultant group told reporters on a teleconference call from Washington.
McKinsey published the report called “Reducing U.S. Greenhouse Emissions: How Much at What Cost?” with The Conference Board, a research group.
