Comment | I urge the CARB Borad to adopt a strong global warming scoping plan for California to both slow global warming and achieve immediate reductions in smog and other dangerous air pollutants that cuase illness and death. A strong plan will set the standard for national and international action. I also urge the state air board to include a stronger focus on measures to reduce emissions from driving which contribute both the largest percentage of greenhouse gases and dangerous air pollutants in California. Therefore, the plan should include a much more aggressive statewide goal for reduicing vehicle trips and measures to promote porgressive action by local governments. To reach the state's targets for greenhouse gas reduction targets, the plan should additionally include a strong goal and additional regulatory measures for reducing pollution from industrial sources such as petroleum refineries and cement manufacturing facilities. It is also crtical that any measures taken to reduce greenhouse gases contain do not increase hot spots of pollution in communities already impacted by multiple sources of pollution. Please help take one large step in helping the improvement of our home, planet Earth. |
