Comment:
Dear Chairman Nichols,


I am writing to thank you for your leadership on climate change
policy and to encourage the California Air Resources Board to
support public health by establishing the most ambitious regional
greenhouse gas reduction targets possible under SB375.  

Establishing strong targets will clearly signal the need for a
departure from business as usual sprawl and support more
sustainable communities throughout California where residents have
healthier, physically active walking, biking or transit
alternatives to driving.  

Improving California’s land use and transportation planning
processes to reduce our dependency on driving offers a wide range
of benefits to our communities. Along with reducing our ongoing air
pollution-related public health crisis and cutting our
contributions to climate change, promoting opportunities for daily
physical activity will reduce the burdens faced by our children,
the elderly and others living with chronic illnesses like asthma,
obesity, diabetes and depression. 

Please continue to support public health by establishing strong
regional greenhouse gas targets. Middletown 95461 is often plagued
by woodsmoke and vehicle emission pollution.

Sincerely,
Clare Brady
