IDIOTS!
There is no “crisis”.
The only “crisis” is stoping these nutjobs from getting your money and giving you a lifestyle that no one wants.
The program will also encourage development of walkable cities with shorter commutes, high-speed rail as an alternative to air travel, and will require more hybrid and hydrogen-fueled vehicles both to move goods and people, CARB said."
God help us. I'm surprised the CARB didn't mandate all citizens wear Birkenstocks. The loony environmental left will kill what's left of the California economy.
Actually, the law of unintended consequences might be a good thing. It the Enviros tank California, I am sure the other 49 states might wise up.
We wanted to build a small asphalt plant in Stockton some years ago. By the time the CARB board, the city board and the neighborhood board got done with us, we built the thing in Reno.

They’ll just do it in the other 49 states because “failure in one state is not indicitive of failure in other states.”
Why have I only heard of the desert sands from the middle east and Asia as the biggest contributor to LA’s “haze” only a few times? NO ONE ever points to that, provides more details, or more evidence of this being their “smog” problem.
“california unveils ambitious climate plan”
if you listen closely, you can hear the sound of the hobnail boots of climate nazis stomping in unison as they approach the main streets of the whole country.
‘you vill comply mit der dictates uff ze superior, self-appointed intellectual geniuses who haff mastered scyence and arrived at an impeccable decision to rescind property rights and remove your right to freely move yourself and goods and services without the impediment of government fiat.’
in other words, we’re screwed in november.
IMHO
I LIVED in Stockton for several years in the 1980s. It was the armpit of California -- gang problems, graffiti, political problems... how can they get anymore discriminating?
I guess CA is giving itself enough rope....
This was on government owned property, a former Army base owned by the city. I liked what I saw of Stockton.
Into what? Bankruptcy?
“Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, whose landmark 2006 law aimed at reducing the state’s greenhouse gas emissions prompted CARB’s plan, supports the program, Nichols said.”
The governator, following through on his campaign promises to make California business friendly again to stop the out migration of employers.
It's great to have handicapped contributors to Free Republic. (Uh... you are blind, right?) ;)
California is truly a state led by stupid, leftist destroyers.

Having said that, I am putting my Malibu beachfront property up for sale first thing Monday morning.
Cocktail hour doesn't begin here at my palatial oceanside residence for another hour or so.
“reduce pollutants by 10 percent from current levels by 2020”
That’s not very much. I would expect the advance of pollution technology and increased cost of gas alone to do that very shortly without any action by the government. I guess they don’t like the environment as much as they claim. Why not cut it in half by 2010? Then it would be worth talking about.
I’m so happy here in CA these days, I could just (BLEEP) a well baked adobe brick!!!
