We need a well-designed cap-and-trade program.  
Cap-and-trade puts an absolute limit on pollution from some of
California's largest sources and guarantees the environmental
results we need. CARB should include as many sources as possible
in a cap-and-trade system. I support CARB's preliminary thinking
that 80% of California's global warming pollution would be under a
cap-and-trade system by 2020.

We need an "Indirect Source Rule" (ISR) to control emissions from
development projects. CARB should require California's local air
districts to develop ISRs to control emissions from new
developments.

We need a new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean
energy in our state.  An RPS is a requirement that a percentage of
all energy sold in California be generated from renewable sources
(solar, wind, biomass, etc). California's current RPS target is
10% by 2010. I support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the
state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 2020.
