Subject: we need STRONG action - there is no time
Comment:
it is fundamental that we take strong action here. I support the nrdc's recommendations, in particular the following three issues:: We need a well-designed cap-and-trade program. CARB should include as many sources as possible in a cap-and-trade system. We support CARB's preliminary thinking that 80% of California's global warming pollution would be under a cap-and-trade system by 2020. We need 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. We need a new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean energy in our state. We support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 2020. Further, I would like to see individual homeowners and building owners facilitated in their search to install alternative energy, and eventually reward with the ability to actually earn profits, as opposed to just arrive at a zero balance.
