Comment:
It is very important to expand CA recycling markets and infrastructure: o Expand the existing Recycling Market Development Zone (RMDZ) program o Increase performance based-investment incentives for recycling processing and recycled-content manufacturing, building on the model of California’s successful Plastic Market Development Program o These actions would spur economic development, create jobs, and reduce direct and lifecycle GHG emissions Also very important to expand CA processing of yard trimmings, food scraps, and other organic materials: o Reduce landfill methane emissions by providing incentives for increasing composting and digestion o Applying compost to California soils improves carbon storage, reduces use of chemical fertilizers and their associated emissions, and decreases energy-intensive water use Thank you for your consideration.
