Preserving California's Emissions Reduction Goals: Stay The Course On Methane Reductions From The Low Carbon Fuel Standard
As California continues efforts to reach its ambitious climate goals, the California Air Resources Board faces a pivotal decision that could profoundly impact the state's climate progress. CARB is currently updating the state's Low-Carbon Fuel Standard program, which has prompted overly simplistic demands from anti-dairy political advocacy groups to remove recognition for reducing methane emissions during fuel production from the program. Despite the noise, it is crucial for policymakers to stay the course and support effective methane reduction measures currently supported by the LCFS and validated by prevailing academic research.
