Sunflower Alliance Webinar: For a Stronger State Climate Plan

RSVP to action@sunflower-alliance.org

Save the date for a discussion with California climate justice leaders about the growing movement to oppose the weak and inadequate draft climate plan proposed by the California Air Resources Board. Learn how we can join the push for a plan that would rapidly phase out fossil fuels and bring justice to frontline communities.

The CARB draft plan

• Doesn’t shut down any of the gas power plants that currently pollute our neighborhoods; keeps all fossil fuel gas plants operating
• Builds many new polluting power plants
• Plans for excessive greenhouse gas emissions (30 MMT ) from the electric sector every year through 2050, never reaching zero emissions
• Relies extensively on unproven technologies (Carbon Capture and Sequestration [CCS] in addition to direct air capture) instead of renewable energy
• Would not achieve carbon neutrality until 2045.

We will hear from Francis Yang of the Sierra Club and the coalition that has been campaigning for a stronger plan. More speakers to be announced.
