Subject | Public Comment on Third 15-Day Modifications to Proposed LCFS Amendments |
Comment | Dear California Air Resources Board As a college student living in San Francisco and someone deeply concerned about the future of our climate and frontline communities, I appreciate the opportunity to submit my public comment regarding the Third Notice of Modified Text for the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) Amendments. While I support California's efforts to reduce carbon intensity in the transportation sector, I urge CARB to prioritize true zero-emission solutions over transitional or unproven technologies like hydrogen produced with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). Allowing fossil-based hydrogen with CCS to count toward renewable hydrogen requirements risks prolonging dependence on fossil fuel infrastructure, which harms air quality. I respectfully ask that CARB make all regulatory documents and amendments accessible in plain language to support public understanding and meaningful participation. The complexity of the tracked changes and APA formatting poses a barrier for students, working people, and non-technical community members trying to stay informed and advocate for equitable policy. Please ensure this amendment process upholds climate justice, centers public health, and avoids greenwashing technologies that benefit fossil fuel companies more than frontline Californians. |
