The Center for Biological Diversity very strongly supports
California’s continuing commitment to statewide reductions in
greenhouse gas emissions beyond 2020. However, the Center has deep
concerns with the Proposed Amendments as they overwhelmingly rely
on cap-and-trade as the primary mechanism for achieving emissions
reductions, and they would perpetuate certain crucial failings of
California’s current greenhouse gas Cap-and-Trade program.
Therefore, the Center respectfully urges the Board to reject the
Proposed Amendments to extend the existing Cap-and-Trade program
beyond 2020, and to pursue alternative, non-cap-and-trade
approaches to achieving California’s greenhouse gas reductions.
