Chairman Nichols and Members of the Board:

Thank You for protecting the enviornment.
While I agree with many of the steps outlined in the AB 32 Scoping
Plan, I am concerned and disappointed by the details of the cap and
trade component. By giving away the vast majority of pollution
allowances, your proposal would financially reward the biggest
polluters. This provides a clear disincentive for polluting
businesses to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, and therefore,
would weaken the impact of California’s landmark climate bill.

Please take advantage of the favorable public climate that
California currently enjoys around addressing climate change and
implementing AB 32 by taking much-needed bold actions and removing
the massive allowance giveaways outlined in the current rules.
Thank you.

Chris Best
