Subject | Californi'as Proposed Global Warming Regulations |
Comment | Thank you for taking global warming seriously and developing a plan to reduce global warming pollution while at the same time creating jobs and making California a healthier and more prosperous place to live. These standards will reaffirm California's role as a leader in preservation of our natural environment and making it better for our children and generations to follow us. I believe that parts of the proposal are strong, such as setting a limit that declines each year, and setting a minimum price on carbon pollution but the proposal can be strengthened. This can be accomplished by requiring more of the state’s largest polluters to pay for their global warming emissions instead of giving permits away for free. By forcing polluters to pay for the emissions they generate by purchasing permits in an auction, we can then re-invest the auction funds into efforts that will help us transition to a cleaner economy and help lower energy costs for Californians. Please work to implement the will of California s residents to live in a cleaner and healthier state. My family thanks you for your good work on this! |
