Comment
Thank you for taking global warming seriously and developing a plan
to reduce global warming pollution while at the same time creating
jobs and making California a healthier and more prosperous place to
live. These standards will reaffirm California's role as a leader
in preservation of our natural environment and making it better for
our children and generations to follow us.

I believe that parts of the proposal are strong, such as setting a
limit that declines each year, and setting a minimum price on
carbon pollution but the proposal can be strengthened. 

This can be accomplished by requiring more of the state’s largest
polluters to pay for their global warming emissions instead of
giving permits away for free. By forcing polluters to pay for the
emissions they generate by purchasing permits in an auction, we can
then re-invest the auction funds into efforts that will help us
transition to a cleaner economy and help lower energy costs for
Californians.

Please work to implement the will of California
s residents to live in a cleaner and healthier state.

My family thanks you for your good work on this!
