Subject | Increase the land use target of CO2 to 11-14 MMT |
Comment | Dear CARB, The key challenge of our time is Global warming. Meeting this challenge requires fundamental changes in the way we grow our communities. In the AB 32 Scoping Plan, I would like to see CARB increase the land use target to 11-14 metric tons (MMT) of CO2 equivalent from 5 million MMT. The higher target and the benefits of dense, mixed-use development are achievable with policies California is already considering. Setting a higher target for the land use sector will signal to the world that new land use patterns are a high priority in the fight against global warming. A higher target should be coupled with a commitment to provide financial resources, technical assistance, and other support to help regions, local governments, and transportation agencies achieve the target. Together, we can do it! Thank you for your time and consideration, Lisane Drouin |
