1. MTC/ABAG are overly-pessimistic about the efficacy of aggressive pricing, contradicting more optimistic Moving Cooler results. 2. The baseline carbon reduction forecast for AB 1493 (Pavley) and Low Carbon Fuels assumes that things will go smoothly, an unrealistic assumption. This forecast should be reduced to reflect more skepticism. 3. It is unfortunate that MTC/ABAG chose politically improbable aggressive pricing strategies, rather than politically viable, negative-cost alternatives that provide similar VMT reduction. A policy comparison table is provided. 4. TDM is more of an essential response to aggressive pricing, rather than being a separate generator of reduced VMT. 5. If 2035 AB32 targets will not be met (60% of 1990), develop a "meet the 2035 AB32 target" scenario. Please see attached PDF for details |
