I ask the California Air Resources Board to
adopt a better plan on how our state will combat the most
catastrophic impacts of climate change in the crucial years ahead.
CARB must improve the Draft Scoping Plan by accelerating a
phase-out of oil and gas extraction and oil refining; not making
any more investment in fossil fuel infrastructure; eliminating or
significantly reducing our reliance on unproven and costly
technologies to prolong polluting fuel sources; pursuing more
robust transportation sector targets; and decarbonizing buildings.
The escalating climate crisis requires that CARB adopts a more
ambitious Scoping Plan, one with the vision and conviction to
provide the solutions that are needed to overcome the crisis that
we face. Thank you..
