A series of public workshops
to obtain input on addressing air pollution and how to help California meet its
2030 greenhouse gas reduction goals will be held this month across California.
A key
goal of the workshops is to engage California residents from low income and
minority communities that have historically had the most exposure to air
pollution.
Organized
by the Environmental Justice Advisory Committee (EJAC) and assisted by the
California Air Resources Board (ARB), the input will be used for the state’s Climate
Change Action Plan, also called the Scoping Plan, that will be the blueprint
for reducing California’s GHG emissions 40 percent by 2030.
