From the State that Brought You Car Culture...
California is poised to become the first state in the nation to regulate greenhouse gasses from cars. This is fantastic news. Despite having a bunch of oil industry cronies in the White House, we can still make progress when we act in our communities, our cities, our states. I was so incredibly discouraged when The Supremes handed the election to Dubya, that I virtually renounced politics altogether. But in the months that followed, measure by measure, San Francisco and California restored my faith in the process.You're used to hearing Republicans talking state's rights. But it's about time we do too. If we want to fight Global Warming and the destruction of our planet, we can't wait on Washington DC. We have to do it at home first. And like Burton says, "there's no way in the world they're going to make a clean car for California and dirty cars for other places."
