Subject: Joint Energy Commission, CPUC, and ARB CAT Subgroup Workshop on GHG Reduction Measures
Date: 2008-04-21
This email is only for the hardy - the Climate Action Team (CAT) with the state's Air Resources Board sends emails on a regular basis for noticing of meetings. Now that much research and public workshop work has been completed, the ARB is begining a series of hearings on the proposals from these efforts. Most of these meetings are webcast and I encourage you to monitor if you cannot attend. It is very exciting to hear some of the best and the brightest tackle this challenging task of reducing our energy dependency and reduce our greenhouse gases. Few people actually get to see this kind of work, staff and citizens and consultants all working toward some state policy. Enjoy.
