Dear CARB,  
 
Global warming is the most important challenge facing us today. AS
a community we must make some changes both individually and as
groups. In the AB 32 Scoping Plan, I would like to see CARB
increase the land use target from 5 million metric tons (MMT) of
CO2 equivalent to 11-14 MMT.

    * The higher target and the benefits of dense, mixed-use
development are achievable with policies California is already
considering.
    * Setting a higher target for the land use sector will signal
to the world that new land use patterns are a high priority in the
fight against global warming.
    * A higher target should be coupled with a commitment to
provide financial resources, technical assistance, and other
support to help regions, local governments, and transportation
agencies achieve the target. 


Thanks for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Kelly McKnight
