Comment 1 for General Comments for the GHG Scoping Plan (sp-general- ws) - 1st Workshop. First Name: Chris Last Name: Morgner Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: California agriculture businessman Subject: ARB News Release June 26, 2008 Comment: Utilities are to provide 33% of their power from renewable resources such as wind, solar, and geothermal? Since I know you are not joking (and it really isn't funny), I'd like to know how long that will take and at what cost. There was no mention of nuclear power which would be an abundant source of clean energy at lower cost and in a shorter time frame than wind and solar. I am totally against the far reaching extremes that AB32 demands. Attachment: Original File Name: Date and Time Comment Was Submitted: 2008-06-28 16:37:26 No Duplicates. Comment 2 for General Comments for the GHG Scoping Plan (sp-general- ws) - 1st Workshop. First Name: jack Last Name: osborne Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: Subject: report accuracy Comment: you see an example of a problem with all "expert" testimony: most of it is "MAI", made as instructed. I've read many tax opinions by large law firms used to promote various tax shelters that I couldn't have signed. Not even for the $500,000 I guessed the law firm got for the opinion. For $5 million, well ... The problem is a general lack of "expert" accountabilty, whether the "experts" are: CPAs, rating agencies, criminalists, FBI agents, economists, you name it. If you can't sue 'em over their opinions, they're worthless. If they can hide behind lawyer-client privilege, they're worthless. And that is accurate for all policies that are generated to comply with a requested solution. There are no rebuttal arguments, contrary opinions, or anything that might upset the required solution., especially when it involves politics or politicans. Like most things produced on this subject it is biased one way, or the other, depending on the desires of the requestors of the opinions.

First Name: robert Last Name: dinwiddie Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: Subject: arb plan to reduce green house gases Comment: Please do nothing to create more expense and problems for california busniness and citizens. There are 31000 plus weather and atmospheric scientists that say man does not cause global warming or climate change. You can cause this state immeasurable damage if you keep up this foolishness in gas and diesel requirements. Worse yet. if you increase the requirements on oil and utility companies to reduce carbon sources of fuel, the people of california will pay dearly for an unproven warming theory...for the last 10 years we have cooled..please, dear God, let there be common sense used. If you continue your stated path, you will all be personally responsible for destroying the economy of Califonia. Since we can't make it rain make it stop make the skys snow, stop or start hurricanes, how in God's name do you think we can cause the climate to warm or cool???? Hopefully you will hear from all us other silent citizens telling you to stop fooling with our lives and back off on your power trip. sincerely.
