Comment | In its April 2016 proposed SLCP Reduction Strategy, the CA ARB effectively ignored the single largest methane emission source in California: enteric emissions from California livestock. No "reasonably foreseeable compliance responses associated with the methane reduction measures" were projected concerning potential enteric emission reductions from California livestock in Appendix C, pages 4-16/17, Draft EA for Proposed SLCP Reduction Strategy (April 11, 2016). In the aftermath of the legislative and executive enactment of SB 1383, this judgment remains unchanged but now also extends to the California legislature and the Governor of California. Unfortunately, the very real atmospheric/thermodynamic impacts of past, present, and future enteric methane emissions on the Earth’s already disrupted climate system are also likely to remain unchanged. Still, we believe that there are reasonable measures that could be (and should be) enacted to dramatically reduce methane emissions from this source (as well as other GHG emissions associated with livestock supply chains in California). We again present these measures in the pdf file uploaded to CA ARB. Todd Shuman, Ara Marderosian, and Jan Dietrick |
