Subject | Reduce Global Warming! |
Comment | I urge the CARB Board to adopt a strong global warming scoping plan for California to both slow global warming and achieve immediate reductions in smog and other dangerous air pollutants that cause illness and death. I am the parent of TWO ASTHMATIC CHILDREN; a plan such as this will help them and many others. A strong plan will set the standard for national and international action. I also urge the state air board to include a stronger focus on measures to reduce emissions from driving which contribute both the largest percentage of greenhouse gases and dangerous air pollutants in California. Therefore, the plan should include a much more aggressive statewide goal for reducing vehicle trips and measures to promote progressive action by local governments. To reach the state's targets for greenhouse gas reduction targets, the plan should additionally include a strong goal and additional regulatory measures for reducing pollution from industrial sources such as petroleum refineries and cement manufacturing facilities. It is also critical that any measures taken to reduce greenhouse gases contain do not increase hot spots of pollution in communities already impacted by multiple sources of pollution. |
