California Climate Policy

CRS staff provide input to the California Air Resources Board on implementation of the Global Warming Solutions Act (Assembly Bill 32) through both direct engagement as a stakeholder—which involves testifying at public workshops, participating in technical working groups, and submitting comment letters—and as an active member of the Global Warming Action Coalition (GWAC) coalition. We participate in the electricity/renewables committee. We are also active at the California Energy Commission, the California Public Utilities Commission, and in tracking developments in the California legislature.
