Our company urges more ambition than any of the alternatives
presented in order to achieve a necessary climate-stabilizing goal
by 2030. We further agree with the Sierra Club California main
points: 

1.	Exclude New Investments in Fossil Fuel Infrastructure and Pursue
Renewable Energy
2.	Pursue Direct Emissions Reductions Rather Than Gambling on
Carbon Capture and Other Unproven Technologies
3.	Reduce Emissions from the Transportation Sector by Enforceable
Measures to Comply with the Governor's Executive Order
4.	Phase Out Oil Refining, Gas Extraction, and Correct Assumptions
in Alternatives 2- 4
5.	Evaluate Public Health Benefits on the Same Level as Economic
Costs
6.	Exclude Green Hydrogen Injections into the Methane Pipeline
System
7.	Set a Date for Electrification Retrofits in Addition to
Replacing Gas Appliances at End-Of-Life

We would additionally want the goal for 30% organic acreage to be
achieved no later than 2030 to cut the use of artificial nitrogen
and toxic inputs to soil that damage the capacity for biological
carbon sequestration and climate resilience. We also urge you to
incorporate into land management goals, practices to slow, spread
and sink water: rehydrating and re-vegetating and thereby cooling
landscapes based on the latent heat of evaporation.

We would like to see you be more responsive to the recommendations
of the EJAC. You don't appear to respect the time they are putting
into the process and it seems rude and inappropriate. The short
timeline seems to be a recurring reason for not explaining the
assumptions and the models that EJAC has asked for.  Please take
the time to respond to the EJAC because we can count on the EJAC's
recommendations to be sound.

We need to achieve the climate-stabilizing, emission-reduction
requirement by 2030; however, you are not showing us the details to
assure us that we will get there. We anticipate that to get there
requires enforceable measures with annual accountability reports
and ongoing adjustment.
