California Air Resources Board is running full blast at solving Global Warming right? OK so they mentioned carpooling on pag 177 of that 189 page document. But actually they are trying something new. Ethanol.

And when the subcommittee that was legally charged with Environmental Justice of the execution of California AB-32 the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006....when the head of that committee was granted a special 15 minute presentation....she begged the Board to slow down on the "Low Carbon Fuel Standard".

Of course we have since learned that Governor Swa (oh who cares ) was on the phone with the good Chairman urging the board to approve the plan as designed. It really makes you wonder how seriously politicians take public comment....or their own laws...that they wrote and signed. And the Good Professor Sperling swore to all of us there...that this so called "food vs fuel" argument was of no bearing.

We had only Professor Sperling...who co wrote the work on California's Low-Carbon-Fuel Standard...reasurring us that "no one wants corn based ethanol". A wonderfully strong statement from one of the 9 people who would help upset the worlds economy of food.

The following is a full AFP report on biofuels (ie corn ethanol) and its affect on the world food supply.

Global Warming Taxes are coming your way in California.

The Metropolitan Traffic Commission is looking for more money. And they are willing to use the excuse of Global Warming Solutions to get it.

In an ABC report, "There is a reason that 3,000 cars a day buy gas from the Arco station in Mill Valley: low prices. However, if the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and Bay Area Air Quality Management District get their way, buyers could face an additional 10 cent fee in two or three years. "

Yep folks, a 10 cent per gallon new tax. Cause gas is too cheap!

And read on to find out the plans for the money...

So NOAA agrees that it is in fact getting hotter in here.

More evidence of the problem.... and more foot dragging by the politicians.

To cure our global warming problem, our politicians must be honest with the issue of carpooling and the governments addictions to the taxation of cars.

Here is the full story from the AP

On Aug 22,2007 the State of California put forth their press release related to the Western Climate Initiative Statement of Regional Goal.

Besides the lies and coverup that the Initiative allows for. They still tout that we will get to 75% reductions by 2050.

The politicians are not doing much to help us reduce our use of fossil fuels. Suggesting alternative fuels that actually burn more oil energy than the alternative produces.

There are no initiatives to reduce the rate at which we burn the remaining oil.

You shall see how that might actually get us to 80% reductions by 2032

It appears that AB 32 (Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006) Legislation may be beginning to show its thin shell.

Two of the top people at the California Air Resources Board have left. Just when they got the early actions approved too.

Is this just a way for some politicians to have someone else to blame for global warming than themselves.
