We need to do much more to reduce GHGE and promote equity.
- Rein in rogue refineries. Commit California to
a policy/regulatory agenda that ensures that California refineries
are not sourcing crude from regions where there are Indigenous
rights violations or from regions where new oil drilling in the
Amazon is being planned.
- Don't punt your climate impacts to communities in the
Amazon. Present a plan for California to reduce and/or
eliminate its consumption of crude from the Amazon.
- Commit California to new fuel efficiency standards and
expanded electrification of fleets that consume the most
Amazon oil. Expansion of EVs broadly, and public transportation
goals to reduce domestic consumption equivalent to Amazon oil
import total.
Thank you
