AB 32 Makes Sense for the Average American

As oil and gas prices continue to rise, talk of alternative energy sources is making its way to the forefront. Being “environmentally friendly” is no longer reserved for the out-there environmentalist; it now makes economic sense for the average American.

BREATHE LA Supports Governor's EPA Lawsuit

Do you BREATHE? Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Attorney General Jerry Brown have done the right thing to file suit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) for its failure to act on California's request for a waiver to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from cars and light trucks sold in the state. California has been waiting for a decision from the U.S. EPA for almost two years. There is no more time to waste.

BREATHE LA Opposes Governor's Proposal

BREATHE LA and Breathe California strongly oppose the Governor's proposal to use $1.3 billion in Public Transportation Account funding for programs traditionally funded via the General Fund.

If enacted, the Governor's cuts to the Public Transportation Account would devastate the State Transit Assistance Program, the state's only transit operations assistance program. This action could negatively affect transit agencies and service at a time when service increases are important to help meet air quality standards and quality of life goals.

California Air Resources Board Takes Next Step To Establish 2020 Emissions Standards

BREATHE LA applauds the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for taking the next step in establishing the California emissions standards for the year 2020. This week, CARB released its staff report titled "California 1990 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Level and 2020 Emissions Limit." In compliance with The Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32) CARB is required to determine, by January 1, 2008, the statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit for the year 2020 based on the 1990 emissions level.
