| Comment | Dear Board Members,
I'm against including factory farm gas in California's Low Carbon
Fuel Standard. This will not be a positive solution for our climate
crisis. One of the main reasons to nix factory farm gas from the
standard is that it will encourage more large factory farms, making
it harder for small family farms to prosper while these corporate
farms push down market prices with overproduction. More issues with
this bill include the fact that multinational large meatpackers
will be paid for their pollution, and the bill will create
incentives via government subsidies to support anaerobic digesters
for factory farm gas.
This would add more factory farms which will lead to more methane,
more water and air pollution, more corporate consolidation. I'm in
the Midwest and know this will not lead to less carbon release in
our atmosphere. Please strike this portion of the amendments.
Thank you for allowing comments.
