Comment:
Auto emissions contribute significantly to the pollution in cities
which has a correlation with childhood and infant asthma rates. To
improve the quality of life for future citizens I have suggestions
to incorporate into AB32
-  Make polluters pay for their emissions of greenhouse gases,
using the resulting revenues to promote clean energy and aid
low-income consumers. Limit sharply and verify any offsets. Do not
link our program to any states with weaker emission standards.
-  Include stronger measures to reform land use planning in ways
that reduce vehicle miles traveled.
-  Promote and enable Community Choice Electricity Aggregation
(CCA), which lets communities pool their buying power to generate
clean power.
-  Mandate that auto companies sell hundreds of thousands of
Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) by 2014, not 7500 ZEVs.
Thank you
