Subject: Effect of population growth on GHG
Comment:
Over the next 12 years(purview of AB 32), the population of California will grow, from births alone, by over 20%, an increase equal to the present population of Los Angeles. Thus, population growth threatens to defeat goals to reduce GHG by the targeted 30%. Total GHG = (per capita release of GHG) X (population) We must not ignore the importance of population growth. If we concentrate only on per capita release of GHG, our efforts will be doomed to failure. Education, family planning facilities, and other efforts to stabilize populaton must become part of the mix to reach our goal in reducing GHG.
