Fighting Smog.
The main claim was this emissions rule covering equipment like boilers is preempted by EPCA.

Several organizations, including People’s Collective for Environmental Justice, Industrious Labs, and Sierra Club, intervened.

Court determined that rules are not preempted.

Late yesterday, we received a massive clean air & climate win for Southern California. Industry challenged a massive life-saving rule - 1146.2 - adopted by the South Coast AQMD. You can read more about the rule that will result in major emission reductions here - earthjustice.org/press/2024/s...

I have a hard time seeing. There is a flap in the front for charging. Also, there is a circle in the back of the photo you took - perhaps that is where gas goes.

Been a good day so far

I feel seen by the NY Times ad algorithm. Need to start saving for this one.

PS - overlooking that I don’t believe this is the first all electric RV 😂

Caught a glimpse of a brand new Santa Monica Big Blue EV Gillig bus at the fast charger in Culver City. I like the new design.

I was in Santa Monica and saw and electric bus, two electric trucks, and several electric cars. However, it took too long to snap the photo.

This photo proves all those electric vehicles work really well.

#AQMDChatter - SoCal Gas testifying to delay a life-saving regulation while the region is on fire is so gross.

Shipping Industry showing up today to advocate against life-saving regulations to clean up port pollution is bad form. #AQMDChatter

#AQMDChatter - Supervisor Mitchel said this 👇🏼

“I have no words accurately to reflect the level of devastation.”

“Perfect example of why government exists. Why @SouthCoastAQMD exists.”

“Require all of us to lean in…” 💔

Thank you Supervisor Mitchel.

Are you kidding me?

The American Petroleum Institute ran ads on the daily podcast today on this topic 👇🏼

🤦🏻‍♂️

Being on a call with a decision maker about life-saving clean air and climate rule, countering industry BS arguments while my council district is literally on fire is Kafkaesque.

Stay safe folks in LA.

Here is the slide showing delay. Soonest this could come to the Board is probably April.

So, slide 13 released on Friday the 13th delays adoption of this life saving rule package.

The fight for clean air continues…

Here is the slide w/ stats on commenters.
December 14, 2024 at 4:37 AM
#AQMDChatter - just reviewed the slide deck for the stationary source committee next week. Despite 86% of the written comments supporting this life-saving regulation, the rule will be delayed again.

An email so spicy on a Thursday night that @evangillespie.bsky.social added extra jalapeños to his cocktail. Materials for the December Workshop on Industrial and Commercial Zero-Emission Technologies.

Breaking - EPA proposed approval of South Coast Warehouse Indirect Source Reg. Years of struggle & advocacy from community led to this. Huge shout out to East Yard Communities for EJ, CCAEJ, People’s Collective for EJ & Sierra Club.

Let’s get this over the finish line!
