arbcombo -- 3/28/17 Workshop on the 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan Update

Posted: 14 Mar 2017 10:01:02
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is hosting a public
workshop to present the 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan Update:
The Proposed Strategy for Achieving California’s 2030 Greenhouse
Gas Target (Proposed Plan) and solicit stakeholder input on the
Proposed Plan. CARB staff will present an overview of the
Proposed Plan and present refinements to the plan as part of the
development of the final Scoping Plan.  These refinements include
updates to emissions modeling and economic analyses. 

The workshop is open to the public and full participation by all
parties is encouraged:

DATE: Tuesday, March 28, 2017
TIME: 10:00 am to 3:00 pm
PLACE: 
California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) Byron Sher
Auditorium
1001 I Street, 2nd Floor
Sacramento, California 95814

This workshop is part of the public process to update the AB 32
Scoping Plan to reflect the Governor’s Executive Order B-30-15
and Senate Bill 32, which establish a mid-term greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions reduction target for California of 40 percent
below 1990 levels by 2030.  All State agencies with jurisdiction
over sources of GHG emissions were directed to implement measures
to achieve reductions of GHG emissions to meet the 2030 and 2050
targets.  CARB was directed to update the AB 32 Scoping Plan. 
CARB and other State agencies are identifying the suite of
programs, regulations, incentives, and supporting actions needed
to continue driving down emissions and ensure we are on a
trajectory to meet our mid- and long-term climate goals.

The 2017 Scoping Plan Update Proposed Plan (Proposed Plan) was
made available on January 20th, 2017.  The Proposed Plan
describes the actions the State would take to achieve the SB 32
climate goals of reducing greenhouse gases of at least 40 percent
below 1990 levels by 2030.  It outlines an approach that cuts
across economic sectors to combine greenhouse gas reductions with
reductions of smog-causing pollutants, while also safeguarding
public health and economic goals.  It also describes the need to
extend key reduction programs now underway, lays out new actions
that prioritize direct emission reductions, and establishes the
trajectory that will move the State farther along the path to a
low-carbon future.

The Proposed Plan includes input from a range of State agencies. 
It is also the result of extensive public and stakeholder
processes designed to ensure that California’s greenhouse gas and
pollution reduction efforts continue to improve public health and
drive development of a more sustainable economy.
