I urge the California Air Resources Board to adopt a strong global
warming scoping plan for California to both slow global warming and
achieve immediate reductions in smog and other dangerous air
pollutants that cause illness and death.  A strong plan will set
the standard for national and international action.  I also urge
the state air board to include a stronger focus on measures to
reduce emissions from driving which contribute both the largest
percentage of greenhouse gases and dangerous air pollutants in
California.  Therefore, the plan should include a much more
aggressive statewide goal for reducing vehicle trips and measures
to promote progressive action by local governments.  To reach the
state's targets for greenhouse gas reduction targets, the plan
should additionally include a strong goal and additional regulatory
measures for reducing pollution from industrial sources such as
petroleum refineries and cement manufacturing facilities. It is
also critical that any measures taken to reduce greenhouse gases
contain do not increase hot spots of pollution  in communities
already impacted by multiple sources of pollution. Thank you.
