SubjectPlease cancel the proposed Mine Methane Capture Protocol
Comment
To the California Air Resources Board;

Coal is the biggest contributor to climate change but nonetheless
the mining industry wants to get carbon credits from "capturing and
destroying methane." We know that the State of California asked a
mining executive to write the Mine Methane Capture Protocol, which
includes flaring offsets, and incentivizes more coal mining and
fossil fuel extraction and infrastructure like pipelines.

We must stop this insanity and immediately cancel methane offsets.
Please cancel the proposed Mine Methane Capture Protocol. Offsets
and carbon trading are a false solution to climate change and must
be excluded from California’s Global Warming Solutions Act AB32.

Best regards,

Alnoor Ladha
Executive Director
