Billionaire Environmentalist comes to Sacramento, clashes with business over climate change bill
Tuesday, April 7, 2015 - 16:30
Billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer came to Sacramento on Tuesday to promote a wholesale expansion of air quality regulations promoted by the governor and Senate leader Kevin de León.
The bill by Sen. Kevin de León would set policies in motion to cut petroleum use in cars and trucks by on half, double energy-efficiency retrofits in buildings and increase from one third to one half the amount of energy California derives from renewable sources.
Let’s get under 350 by supporting Kevin de Leon’s S.B. 350
Wednesday, April 8, 2015 - 16:30
De León’s bill—or rather, the legislative package—would ask Californians to double our energy efficiency, get half of our power from renewable sources and cut our oil use in half by 2030.
Our only complaint about this legislation? That it will only be in force in California.
