Join us on December 16th in Sacramento for the presentation and public comment on proposed regulations by CARB staff for implementing AB2. Please contact Barry, bvesser@climateprotection, to be a part of this historic event. Not able to come? Read the draft comment, below, and submit yours to CARB on their website before December 15th. Here's a sample letter:

Dear CARB,

Regarding the proposed Cap & Trade regulation, thank you for including a permit price floor starting at $10/ton. In the transportation fuels sector, I support the upstream point of regulation and auctioning 100% of permits. In the industrial sector, the free allocations are excessive and should be reduced. In the electricity sector, the final regulation should direct utilities to protect ratepayers by returning allowance value directly to residential customers as a rebate check. Finally, I urge you to follow your expert economic panel’s recommendation that “The largest share (roughly 75%) of allowance value should be returned to California households...” in the form of a dividend check.

Sincerely,
Your name
