The draft Scoping Plan is a huge step
backward for California, doubling down on fossil fuel
infrastructure instead of phasing out fossil fuels. It allows for a
massive expansion of dirty gas-fired power plants and calls for
billions in public subsidies for risky, ineffective carbon capture
and storage technology that extends the life of oil refineries. NOW
is the time to change the plan to help create an
equitable and sustainable future beyond fossil fuels, where all of
us have access to healthy air and clean, reliable
transportation.
