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
