Comment | Dear CARB Board members: Thank you for your hard work so far envisioning a plan to implement the Global Warming Solutions Act. I hope you will auction off all emission allowances. Program revenues should go toward GHG reduction programs, such as clean technologies, green jobs, and aid for low-income consumers and small businesses to reduce their utility bills. I also hope you will work to reduce the role of offsets in the Plan. Providing too many offsets encourages continuing emissions in low-income neighborhoods and defenseless habitats, and weakens the demand for clean energy technology innovation. Limiting offsets will create more clean-energy jobs, stimulating our state's economy. Please increase the targets for local governments to reduce emissions and require businesses to recycle their materials. Strong CARB policies will help us reduce air pollution, and create more clean-energy jobs, less waste and healthier communities. Thanks again for your work on behalf of clean air for California. I.B.
