Subject: support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 20
Comment:
1.We need a well-designed cap-and-trade program. Put an absolute limit on pollution from some of California's largest sources and guarante the environmental results we need. CARB should include as many sources as possible in a cap-and-trade system. I support CARB's preliminary thinking that 80% of California's global warming pollution would be under a cap-and-trade system by 2020. 2. We need an "Indirect Source Rule" (ISR) to control emissions from development projects. Developers should measure indirect pollution from construction and operation of projects and ensure that equivalent reductions occur so the project's impacts are limited. CARB should require California's local air districts to develop ISRs to control emissions from new developments. 3. We need a new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean energy in our state. require that a percentage of all energy sold in California be generated from renewable sources (solar, wind, biomass, etc). I support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 2020.
