Comment:
Developers measure indirect (mostly vehicle and energy use) pollution from construction and operation of projects and ensure that equivalent reductions occur so the project's impacts are limited. Our message: CARB should require California's local air districts to develop ISRs to control emissions from new developments. We need a new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean energy in our state: not nuclear and not clean coal which isn't clean enough, not ethanol from food sources. An RPS is a requirement that a percentage of all energy sold in California be generated from renewable sources (solar, wind, biomass, etc). California's current RPS target is 10% by 2010. Our message: We support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 2020.
