I support your agenda to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 25% by
2020.

The most promising way to reach this goal is to give consumers the
choice to buy Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs), like your electric
Tesla Roadster.

Unfortunately, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) may
reduce the number of ZEVs required of automakers by 90%, settling
for only 2,500 from 2012-2014.

Please ask your appointed CARB chair, Mary Nichols, to 
1. Require the full 25,000 ZEVs that automakers had promised for
2012-2014, and
2. Create a separate requirement for plug-in hybrids that lets
them replace the dirtiest vehicles in CARB's regulations, rather
than the cleanest ZEVs.

Choice for consumers means cleaner air for everyone.

i beleive it would be wise to figure out a way to ,in every major
city,  have outskirts city parking lots and rentals of very small
(parkmeter pd)2 seater electric cars for city use. The only people
driving themselves in the cities should be the multi disabled who
don't have electric wheel chairs or scooters and the delivery
people.

wheelchairs and scooters should also be redesigned to be
weatherproof and go longer distances.

if medical medicaid hospital facilities were asked to have clinics
open on weekends for med care, mds do those hours for internship at
ER's anyway..

If  drivers were given a huge insurance discount for only driving
on saturday and sunday.  This would also propel many to do
adjustments in hours of business and driving and help with traffic
congestion and doing the right thing.

These are just beginning ideas, but we need them and many more.
 as well as encouragement and incentives to adopt children and
adults who need help instead of making more children than the land
can support. and leaving those who could ,but for needing help, in
the road.

 
From someone multi disabled you continue to leave in the road
wihtout the scooter....
