1. The best alternative should include the Capm and Trade program. this is will provide funding and including a declining Capon emissions needed to achieve,the reduction in GHG to the new threshold of 40% below 1990m levels. 2. Renewable energy RPS can be achieve and enhanced to as much as 100% by modifying regulations and CEQU requrements tom expedite larger scale solar and wind projects. 3. Emphasis should be placed on land use pplanning that will helpto facilitate compact transit oriented development. Enhanced public transit should be supported to reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled. 4.Support research in the battery and other storage technology to support the renewableenergyand electric vehilce improvements. 5. More support to implement battery electric and fuel cell charging and fueling stations. 6.Use Life Cycle analysis especially in the areas of residential and commercial and industrial building. this will aid in realistically assessing whether a building or other faciilty should be restored and possibly repurposed instead of being replaced. 7. Support building energy efficiecy for both new and existing structures. help implement the PACE program. . Support water conservation and recycling using renewable e energy for treatment. 8. Support agricultural best management practices and the implementation of anaerobic digester project for dairies. 9 Support localization of agriculture to reduce transport. 10, Support energy projects in forest using dead and dying trees as a fuel source for low emisisions incineration. Reduce fire risk by thinning. 11. consider research at U. c. Berkeley for enhanced carbon sequestration in grassland by use of organic mulch. Thank You Very Much for Your Consideration. rick Bettis
