I urge the California Air Resources Board to adopt a strong plan
to combat global warming in California and to set the standard for
national and international action. I also urge the state air 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 a strong goal and additional regulatory measures for
reducing pollution from industrial sources such as petroleum
refineries and cement manufacturing facilities.
Thank you for your consideration of my concerns to strengthen
these key strategies in the AB 32 draft scoping plan.
