arbcombo -- Regional Workshops to discuss a draft Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Strategy
Posted: 01 Oct 2015 14:32:01
The Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) will hold workshops to discuss a draft Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Strategy (Draft Strategy), which was recently released for public comment. The meetings are open to the public and full participation by all parties is encouraged. Locations and dates of the workshops are: Sacramento: October 13, 2015 Diamond Bar: October 14, 2015 Fresno: October 19, 2015 Additional workshop details are included in the notice that is posted here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/shortlived/2015notice.pdf The Draft Strategy can be found on ARB's Short-Lived Climate Pollutant website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/shortlived/shortlived.htm The website also contains a link for submitting written comments on the Draft Strategy. Comments received on the Draft Strategy will inform the development of a Proposed Strategy, which will be presented to the Board in late 2015. An agenda and presentation will be posted before the workshops. Background Short-lived climate pollutants are powerful climate forcers that remain in the atmosphere for a much shorter period of time than major climate pollutants such as carbon dioxide. Their relative potency in terms of how they heat the atmosphere can be tens to thousands of times greater than CO2. Short-lived climate pollutants include methane, black carbon, and fluorinated gases. The impacts of short-lived climate pollutants are especially strong within the near term. Reducing these emissions can have an immediate beneficial impact on climate change. Senate Bill 605 (Lara, Chapter 523, Statutes of 2014) requires ARB, in coordination with other State agencies and local air districts, to develop a strategy by the end of 2015, to further reduce short-lived climate pollutant emissions in California. California is in a drought emergency. Visit www.SaveOurH2O.org for water conservation tips.
