Subject | Vote NO! Fix the LCFS |
Comment | On behalf of Environmental Health Coalition, our organization stands in solidarity with other frontline environmental justice communities across the state of California who are living with the negative impacts from the LCFS program. The climate crisis demands bolder action from CARB. We cannot continue to gift public funds to polluting industries. Do not pass the proposal. It sets in place for too long, harmful and dangerous fuels that are climate dead ends. Credits need to be adjusted to maximize benefits for electric vehicles and not biofuels or hydrogen produced by fossil fuels. The proposed amendments will not help electrification of heavy-duty freight enough and will perpetuate air and water pollution from dairies. The LCFS must be fixed to cut harmful methane crediting, place a cap on renewable diesel credits, include aviation fuels in the program and support clean shipping. I urge a no vote. Make the amendments needed to protect EJ communities before locking in a broken program. |
