Michigan Climate Action Council Members of the Michigan Climate Action Council (MCAC) The Center for Climate Strategies, with assistance from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), prepared an assessment of Michigan's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and anthropogenic sinks (carbon storage) from 1990 to 2025. The Center for Climate Strategies produced a draft Inventory and Forecast report for use by the Michigan Climate Action Council (MCAC) and the Technical Work Groups (TWGs) as they analyzed options for reducing emissions. The MCAC and TWGs sought public comment and reviewed, discussed, and evaluated the draft inventory and forecast methodologies as well as alternative data and approaches for improving the Michagan GHG inventory and forecast. The Inventory and Forecast has been revised to address comments provided by the MCAC, TWGs and the public.
