Subject | Adoption of Proposed Regional Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Targets for Automobiles a |
Comment | Dear Board Members I would like like voice my support for efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emmissions for automobiles and light trucks re: SB375 and AB 32. I am a resident homeowner in West Oakland. The danger of emissions to myself and my family's health is well documented. SB 375 will help to create a better environment for my family, our neighborhoods and community -- and help to rebuild our community by increasing awareness and incentives to live near public transportation (e.g. West Oakland BART station), drive less, walk more and enjoy cleaner air quality. The failure of government regulators to reduce greenhouse emmissions places the burden of business and consumer overconsumption squarely on those of us who have to breathe in their polluted air. The port, the freeways and the use of our neighborhood as a throughfare for cars and trucks makes our neighborhood air quality one of the unhealthiest around. Please consider the highest targets possible and help this region look forward with optimism to a better economic future, based on lower emmissions, greener technologies and better urban planning. Sincerely, Jennifer Dhillon |
