Have you taken the Sonoma Climate Challenge? (the weather depends on it)

That’s where you’re wrong, say the creators of the Sonoma Climate Challenge, a new website - sonomaclimatechallenge.org - designed to show how you can fight climate change by changing how you live your daily life.

“Forty percent of greenhouse gas emissions come from actions at the household level, and that’s what this new tool was created to address,” said Brant Arthur, community affairs specialist with the Sonoma County Regional Climate Protection Authority (RCPA).

**SNIP**

In July 2016, it produced a regional plan called “Climate Action 2020 and Beyond,” which called for greenhouse gas emissions reductions of 25% below 1990 levels by 2020 and an 80% reduction by 2050.

The problem is 2020 is just six months away, and none of the cities in Sonoma County are anywhere close to reaching this goal.

**SNIP**

The website offers a list of 67 actions that you can do to shrink the amount of energy you use (and therefore the amount of weather deranging carbon you release into the air).

**SNIP**

Most Sebastopudlians like to think of themselves as ecologically enlightened, so how is Sebastopol doing in its quest to reach the Climate 2020 goals? Not great, according to Pierce.

“One of the easiest things that people can do is to sign up for Sonoma Clean Power’s Evergreen Program,” said Pierce. “It’s like an extra $10 to $12 a month...

...before it becomes mandatory that you hand over tons of your cash.

weather deranging carbon

So carbon “deranges” the weather now?

What's the difference between a man made CO2 molecule and a naturally occurring CO2 molecule?

There isn't any difference, they're identical and 95% of all atmospheric CO2 is naturally made.......with man made CO2 being only 5%.

Sebastopudlians

Oh, my. I spent much of my childhood there, and I do not recall ever seeing residents of Sebastopol referred to in this way. This is more proof that the formerly great state of California has gone crazy. Or maybe the proof is in the content of this article. Whenever “going green” involves lowering one’s standard of living, I am highly suspicious, because I know it is not about the environment. It is about control.

Really? You are going to pay someone to tell you not to do stuff?

This while Chinese citizens are walking around with face masks and nothing is said and newly recognized up and coming industrialized nations are free to do what ever they like. Enemies within are trying their best to kill this nation

Sonoma County west of 101 has been hippy dippy liberal for decades.

The pot heads and artsy fartsy liberals from San Francisco descended on that area to the Ocean and North to Seattle.

They hate America, Christians, practicing Jews, legitimate businesses and our military.

We are now into second and third generations of these artsy/fartsy hippies.

Sebastopol/Russian River area is the gateway to this Vegan Hippie world.

Easy solution....deport all who have come to the USA except thru legal immigration....50,000,000 out of the USA, sent home....and your environmental goals more than met.

Also housing costs would become much more affordable, more jobs, better pay, less crime, less stress on local schools and hospitals, etc.

Many benefits.
Not purging the USA and doing more recycling, etc is comparatively useless.

This planet Earth has been in existence for over four billion years. During that time, there have been many forces that have acted upon it including earthquakes, asteroids, floods, volcanos, sun bursts, and droughts just to mention a few. Over the years, continents have broken apart, some land areas have gone under water, and some land areas have emerged. None of this has been caused by humans. I happen to be a Christian so I believe that God made this Earth and God continues to mold it as He sees fit. Humans cannot control these things mentioned above. Humans can cause pollution, temporary flooding, and the sort but humans cannot control the Sun. Liberals live to control us and make our lives miserable under the name of climate change. Will this stupid action ever cease, nope!

Manmade is 5% of CO2 concentration and total CO2 in the atmosphere is around 0.04%.

For those Democrats and other math challenged citizens the manmade part of the atmosphere is

0.04 X 0.05= so neglibile that only idiots like Obama, Gore, and climate "scientists" could think it makes any difference to anything.

Perhaps “Gulliver’s Travels” is the user’s life blueprint?

I’m not going to read the article, but if someone would just tell me a few things I should stop doing to reduce my carbon footprint.
I WOULD GLADLY DO MORE OF THEM, CO2 is plant food.
