I am a victim of dirty air and dangerous particulates in the air in
Los Angeles.  My doctor has diagnosed me with silicosis,
bronchiectesis, and pseudomonas.  No one can pin point its origin
other than to say it is in the air.  My immune system is
compromised and I am subject to bronchitis many times a year due
to a weakened immune system.

I urge the California  Air Resources Board  to include a stronger
focus on measures to reduce emissions from driving  that
contribute the largest percentage of greenhouse gases  in
California.  The plan should include a much more aggressive
statewide goal for reducing vehicle trips and measures to promote
progressive action by local governments.  The plan should also
include additional strong regulatory measures on industrial
sources to reduce emissions form petroleum refineries, power
plants, cement manufacturers, and others sources.

It is vitally important the plan demonstrate that the variety of
proposed measures will  not only make rapid progress toward
reducing greenhouse gases, but will also  provide local benefits
to communities in terms of improved air quality and public health.
 

Thank you for your consideration of my concerns to strengthen
these key strategies in the AB 32 draft scoping plan.
