Comment:
The following three issues are critically important to California's future and to our state's groundbreaking efforts to fight global warming. I urge you to see that they are included in the plan. 1. A well-designed cap-and-trade program. CARB should include as many sources as possible in a cap-and-trade system. I support CARB's preliminary thinking that 80% of California's global warming pollution would be under a cap-and-trade system by 2020. 2. An "Indirect Source Rule" (ISR) to control emissions from development projects. CARB should require California's local air districts to develop ISRs to control emissions from new developments. 3. A new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean energy in our state. California's current RPS target is 10% by 2010. I support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 2020. Thank you.
