Comment:
Dear California Air Resources Board, I am writing to urge CARB to protect the health of our communities by implementing strong rules for Californias historic cap-and-trade program. Without fair rates for pollution permits, our cap-and-trade program is toothless. Despite receiving an overwhelming number of pollution permits for free, the fossil fuel industry is asking for additional giveaways at the expense of Californias taxpayers and the climate. The fossil fuel industrys demands amount to a $365 million subsidy over the next three years. California should be investing in clean energy, not paying for corporations to pollute our air. To stay true to CARBs mission, you have a responsibility to safeguard the health of the communities hit hardest by air pollution caused by oil refineries. Sincerely, Lilian Adams
