Longtime resident Magali Sanchez Hall says the pollution from all that \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/02/02/68616/is-california-climate-law-worsening-pollution-in-c/\">has taken a toll\u003c/a>, right on the street where she lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The people that live here, the mother died of cancer,” she says, pointing to a modest one-story home. “The people that live here, three people died of cancer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s own research finds people in Wilmington are about twice as likely to get cancer as the average person in greater Los Angeles. That’s mostly due to diesel fumes, but also the toxic chemicals that mix with the greenhouse gas emissions of refineries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez Hall wipes her finger across the hood of a car and holds it up. “Black dust,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”O2acFWnir4mdzUZBjXuzRErsmrU7ZwAq”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given all this, you might think Sanchez Hall would be excited about California’s so-called cap-and-trade program, which aims to get polluting companies, like the refineries here, to reduce emissions. But she and others say the state’s signature climate change program is failing them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first heard about cap and trade, I couldn’t conceive how pollution had become a commodity to profit from,” says Alicia Rivera of Communities for a Better Environment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the program, California sets an overall cap on carbon emissions. In order to meet it, companies have three choices: cut their emissions directly; buy and sell permits that allow them to keep emitting; or make up for their emissions by reducing emissions somewhere else. That last option is called an “offset,” and environmental justice activists like Rivera hate it the most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t care if they have a project for tree planting elsewhere,” she says. “When are they going to reduce pollution here?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recent study finds that emissions in places like Wilmington actually increased during the first two years of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s cap-and-trade system faces other challenges, including \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Lawsuit-not-Trump-threatens-California-s-10631542.php\">a lawsuit\u003c/a> by the California Chamber of Commerce, which alleges the program is an illegal tax unless it garners two-thirds approval in the Legislature. Gov. Jerry Brown is urging lawmakers to give that approval, and extend cap and trade beyond 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”EOfUcfyunfr8WCwnoIoFzCTbD1QnOhid”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some lawmakers are sympathetic to the environmental justice position. And some advocates \u003ca href=\"https://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/ejac/meetings/01182017/20170112ca_ej_declaration_on_carbon_pricing_reform.pdf\">recently declared\u003c/a> they will “fight at every turn” efforts to extend cap and trade, and push instead for something that guarantees direct emissions reductions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those who run the cap-and-trade program say they are listening, and acting. “It’s probably premature to try to judge the program’s total effectiveness at this point because it hasn’t been in effect very long,” says Dave Clegern of the California Air Resources Board. But he says the board is proposing that refineries cut their emissions by 20 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the state says it also wants to keep cap and trade, which a recent \u003ca href=\"http://www.lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/3553\">legislative report \u003c/a>deemed the “likely most cost-effective” approach to reducing greenhouse gases. Clegern says auctioning off carbon credits also generates a lot of money, and by law, half of it must benefit people living in disadvantaged communities. “What we have basically is a balancing act,” he says, “where we need to be able to keep the economy alive, [and] keep public health improving.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s Air Resources Board will consider whether and how to amend its cap-and-trade program in June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in Wilmington, some are losing patience. Longtime resident Magali Sanchez Hall says the polluted air affects even her smallest daily decisions, like where to work out. “I try to come to exercise here at this park,” she says, driving down her street. “But it just feels weird to be exercising and breathing all this, you know? It’s just weird.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 Southern California Public Radio.

That’s mostly due to diesel fumes, but also the toxic chemicals that mix with the greenhouse gas emissions of refineries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez Hall wipes her finger across the hood of a car and holds it up. “Black dust,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given all this, you might think Sanchez Hall would be excited about California’s so-called cap-and-trade program, which aims to get polluting companies, like the refineries here, to reduce emissions. But she and others say the state’s signature climate change program is failing them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In order to meet it, companies have three choices: cut their emissions directly; buy and sell permits that allow them to keep emitting; or make up for their emissions by reducing emissions somewhere else. That last option is called an “offset,” and environmental justice activists like Rivera hate it the most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t care if they have a project for tree planting elsewhere,” she says. “When are they going to reduce pollution here?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recent study finds that emissions in places like Wilmington actually increased during the first two years of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s cap-and-trade system faces other challenges, including \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Lawsuit-not-Trump-threatens-California-s-10631542.php\">a lawsuit\u003c/a> by the California Chamber of Commerce, which alleges the program is an illegal tax unless it garners two-thirds approval in the Legislature. Gov. Jerry Brown is urging lawmakers to give that approval, and extend cap and trade beyond 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some lawmakers are sympathetic to the environmental justice position. And some advocates \u003ca href=\"https://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/ejac/meetings/01182017/20170112ca_ej_declaration_on_carbon_pricing_reform.pdf\">recently declared\u003c/a> they will “fight at every turn” efforts to extend cap and trade, and push instead for something that guarantees direct emissions reductions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those who run the cap-and-trade program say they are listening, and acting. “It’s probably premature to try to judge the program’s total effectiveness at this point because it hasn’t been in effect very long,” says Dave Clegern of the California Air Resources Board. But he says the board is proposing that refineries cut their emissions by 20 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the state says it also wants to keep cap and trade, which a recent \u003ca href=\"http://www.lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/3553\">legislative report \u003c/a>deemed the “likely most cost-effective” approach to reducing greenhouse gases. Clegern says auctioning off carbon credits also generates a lot of money, and by law, half of it must benefit people living in disadvantaged communities. “What we have basically is a balancing act,” he says, “where we need to be able to keep the economy alive, [and] keep public health improving.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s Air Resources Board will consider whether and how to amend its cap-and-trade program in June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in Wilmington, some are losing patience. Longtime resident Magali Sanchez Hall says the polluted air affects even her smallest daily decisions, like where to work out. “I try to come to exercise here at this park,” she says, driving down her street. “But it just feels weird to be exercising and breathing all this, you know? It’s just weird.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 Southern California Public Radio.

This agreement is the first of a series of steps required to avert substantial\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\"> climate change. The Earth’s climate is entering a state that has not been experienced in human history. Continuing to produce greenhouse gases at current rates will have catastrophic, unstoppable consequences for our environment, our economy, and our country. Bold and decisive action may still avoid the worst scenarios, allow for adaptation to the changes, mitigate the damage, and bring new economic opportunities to our country. To this end, we ask that you ensure America’s place as the global leader on climate action.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c11\">With this letter, we aim to express the degree to which the scientists and intellectual leaders of our state, speaking for themselves and not on behalf of their respective employers, agree on the facts of climate change. Despite misleading portrayals, there is widespread consensus in the scientific and academic communities that human-caused climate change is real, with consequences that are already being felt.\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\"> The science of how greenhouse gases trap heat is unimpeachable. Climate records are being broken as human-caused changes add onto natural oscillations (e.g., El Niño) in the climate system. Fossil records from pre-human times show much higher sea levels and a reorganization of vegetation patterns when greenhouse gases were higher and Earth’s climate was much warmer than today. Increasing levels of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere set in motion regional variations in weather, weather extremes, the loss of major ice sheets, and declining biodiversity that has been associated with mass extinctions in Earth’s past.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">Scientists have warned for decades of the dangers of overreliance on fossil fuels. The world has been slow to respond and, as a result, we run an increasing risk of major damage to America’s economy and security. We have had an unusually large number of serious natural disasters in the past decade that are in line with climate change predictions. The Southeast and West suffer from increasing droughts. Miami floods at high tide as sea levels rise. Major cities on the Eastern and Gulf coasts regularly suffer major damage from violent weather. Western forests die because winters are insufficiently cold to prevent insect infestation of drought-stressed trees. Left unchecked, the frequency and severity of these climate change events will increase with time, as will their economic impact. To secure and conserve our way of life, our economy, and our environment, we need immediate action.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">The United States now has a unique opportunity to lead the world in developing innovative ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. By investing in and incentivizing clean energy and carbon sequestration technologies now, we position ourselves to be the economic and political leaders of the 21st century. To do otherwise cedes these opportunities to others and undermines our national security, food security, water security, and the future of our children and grandchildren. For these reasons, we ask you to maintain and increase our country’s commitment to taking action on climate change, beginning with the current Paris Climate Agreement.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c11\">Signed by\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"c0\">,\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"c8\">\u003cspan class=\"c0\">2344 \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/2kNeOSa\">faculty members\u003c/a>, (as of 5 p.m. Tuesday) listed on \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/2kNeOSa\">the following pages\u003c/a>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",

The restrictions are being characterized as temporary, and some have already been lifted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But climate scientists, in particular, are on edge because the federal government generates a huge amount of data on climate. That information is used in everything from farming to weather forecasting and insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take the example of a single agency: the \u003ca href=\"http://www.noaa.gov/\">National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u003c/a>. NOAA operates 17 environmental satellites, along with myriad instruments that collect data on land and in the oceans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When you add \u003ca href=\"https://science.nasa.gov/earth-science\">NASA\u003c/a>‘s satellites and instruments and scientists, as well as those at other agencies, you get the country’s biggest source of climate data — by far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those data are the main way we know what’s going on with the climate, says \u003ca href=\"https://dge.carnegiescience.edu/labs/asnerlab/\">Greg Asner\u003c/a>, who studies forests at Stanford University. “Nobody has databases like NOAA; nobody has instrumentation networks like NASA,” Asner says. “Without it, we will go blind. It’s like turning off the lights — we’re not going to know what’s happening at the Earth scale.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/511681532/511851773\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government’s role doesn’t stop with just collecting data. Federal scientists analyze the information and eventually release it to the public in reports such as the \u003ca href=\"http://nca2014.globalchange.gov/\">National Climate Assessment\u003c/a>. There have been three so far, and a fourth is due out next year. The assessments are required by law. Scientists from several federal agencies, including NOAA, write them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ocean scientist \u003ca href=\"http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/profiles/aug09/sweet.html\">William Sweet\u003c/a> at NOAA is currently working on the section about sea level rise. “Sea level rise is already happening and the impacts can be felt,” Sweet says. But those impacts, he notes, are not the same everywhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ocean is not a bathtub. It may rise in one place; it may drop in the other,” he says. Ocean currents and wind patterns distribute ocean water unevenly. And coastlines actually move up and down — sometimes it’s a long-term response to the retreat of glaciers during the latest ice age, and sometimes it’s from people draining groundwater. That “vertical land movement” influences how far inland water will encroach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”RXYwmM1OoblKGusqPnJZZXG0iXzR9pwx”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sweet says research prepared for the new assessment shows that the East Coast and parts of the Gulf Coast, for example, will experience even higher sea levels than the world average. And that world average? It could be 8 feet higher than it is now by the end of the century — about a foot and a half higher than predicted in the latest assessment, in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the worst-case scenario. Sweet says it probably will be less — a lot depends on how much more carbon dioxide humans put into the atmosphere and how much of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the short term, he says, the assessment will provide news you can use. For example, there’s been an uptick in abnormally high tides — these cause “sunny day” flooding that occurs even when there’s no storm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At what point do these damaging, disruptive tidal flood events become the new norm?” Sweet says. He adds that the latest climate assessment will help answer that question by pinpointing where and how often these extra-high tides will hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local municipalities can use this information to prepare by deploying pumps, cordoning off streets or even building sea walls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s just a small part of what’s in the assessments. They also cover everything from drought to extreme rain and snowfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what happens if the Trump administration tries to censor this huge scientific enterprise? \u003ca href=\"http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~peter/site/Home.html\">Peter de Menocal\u003c/a>, the dean of science at Columbia University, says there just isn’t any substitute for what federal climate scientists produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The United States, I think, has the best organized and some of the top talent in climate science and engineering in the world,” he says. “The concern is that brain trust, that amazing compendium of knowledge, is going to disappear.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

The restrictions are being characterized as temporary, and some have already been lifted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But climate scientists, in particular, are on edge because the federal government generates a huge amount of data on climate. That information is used in everything from farming to weather forecasting and insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take the example of a single agency: the \u003ca href=\"http://www.noaa.gov/\">National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u003c/a>. NOAA operates 17 environmental satellites, along with myriad instruments that collect data on land and in the oceans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When you add \u003ca href=\"https://science.nasa.gov/earth-science\">NASA\u003c/a>‘s satellites and instruments and scientists, as well as those at other agencies, you get the country’s biggest source of climate data — by far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those data are the main way we know what’s going on with the climate, says \u003ca href=\"https://dge.carnegiescience.edu/labs/asnerlab/\">Greg Asner\u003c/a>, who studies forests at Stanford University. “Nobody has databases like NOAA; nobody has instrumentation networks like NASA,” Asner says. “Without it, we will go blind. It’s like turning off the lights — we’re not going to know what’s happening at the Earth scale.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Federal scientists analyze the information and eventually release it to the public in reports such as the \u003ca href=\"http://nca2014.globalchange.gov/\">National Climate Assessment\u003c/a>. There have been three so far, and a fourth is due out next year. The assessments are required by law. Scientists from several federal agencies, including NOAA, write them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ocean scientist \u003ca href=\"http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/profiles/aug09/sweet.html\">William Sweet\u003c/a> at NOAA is currently working on the section about sea level rise. “Sea level rise is already happening and the impacts can be felt,” Sweet says. But those impacts, he notes, are not the same everywhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ocean is not a bathtub. It may rise in one place; it may drop in the other,” he says. Ocean currents and wind patterns distribute ocean water unevenly. And coastlines actually move up and down — sometimes it’s a long-term response to the retreat of glaciers during the latest ice age, and sometimes it’s from people draining groundwater. That “vertical land movement” influences how far inland water will encroach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sweet says research prepared for the new assessment shows that the East Coast and parts of the Gulf Coast, for example, will experience even higher sea levels than the world average. And that world average? It could be 8 feet higher than it is now by the end of the century — about a foot and a half higher than predicted in the latest assessment, in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the worst-case scenario. Sweet says it probably will be less — a lot depends on how much more carbon dioxide humans put into the atmosphere and how much of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the short term, he says, the assessment will provide news you can use. For example, there’s been an uptick in abnormally high tides — these cause “sunny day” flooding that occurs even when there’s no storm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At what point do these damaging, disruptive tidal flood events become the new norm?” Sweet says. He adds that the latest climate assessment will help answer that question by pinpointing where and how often these extra-high tides will hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local municipalities can use this information to prepare by deploying pumps, cordoning off streets or even building sea walls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s just a small part of what’s in the assessments. They also cover everything from drought to extreme rain and snowfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what happens if the Trump administration tries to censor this huge scientific enterprise? \u003ca href=\"http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~peter/site/Home.html\">Peter de Menocal\u003c/a>, the dean of science at Columbia University, says there just isn’t any substitute for what federal climate scientists produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The United States, I think, has the best organized and some of the top talent in climate science and engineering in the world,” he says. “The concern is that brain trust, that amazing compendium of knowledge, is going to disappear.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Five weeks after the election, Brown gave what he told KQED’s Marisa Lagos was the best \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/12/14/gov-brown-to-embattled-climate-scientists-we-will-persevere/\">speech\u003c/a> he’s given since he ran for president in 1976.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking to a conference of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, Brown promised to stand firm against attempts to weaken California’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.facebook.com/KQEDnews/videos/1247471845327210/\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got a lot of firepower,” Brown told a room full of climate scientists. Flexing his political muscles, Brown said California was an economic powerhouse not to be messed with.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got the scientists, we’ve got the universities, we’ve got the national labs and we have the political clout for the battle. And we will persevere, have no doubt about that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He backed that up by nominating U.S. Rep. Xavier Becerra to replace now-Sen. Kamala Harris as attorney general. Becerra, whose mother was born in Mexico, will become the highest-ranking Latino official in California after he is confirmed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As attorney general, Becerra will be poised as the top legal defender of California policies and values around the environment, health care and immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And he’ll have company. Not to be outdone, the state Legislature \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/01/04/to-defend-against-trump-california-hires-holder/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hired former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder\u003c/a>, presumably to help California develop and articulate the best legal arguments for fighting the new president’s agenda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, which gave Hillary Clinton 4.3 million more votes than Trump (more than the overall voting total by which Clinton beat Trump nationally), does seem uniquely positioned to be what Texas was to Barack Obama — a legal wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Somebody’s gotta do this,” said Terry Moe, a political science professor at Stanford University. “Rather than rolling over and playing dead, it’s smart from a political and public policy standpoint.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for any risks to California for pushing back hard against Trump’s initiatives, Moe doesn’t see any risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not like the feds are going to lock up Jerry Brown,” Moe said. “He’s taking a stand and I don’t see how it can hurt him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"x_MsoNormal\">But Jim Brulte, chair of the California Republican Party, warns that Democrats are making a mistake by lining up to oppose Trump at every turn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"x_MsoNormal\"> “Rather than worrying about the Republicans in Washington replacing the Affordable Care Act, they ought to worry about income inequality, which is greater in California than anywhere in the nation,” Brulte said. “And that’s with a Democrat in the White House.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, a lot of everyday Californians will be joining the opposition, like Oakland activist Capato and many others energized by the specter of a Trump presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those is Elizabeth Beatty of San Francisco, who will attend the Women’s March in D.C. on Saturday with her 12-year-old daughter, Alessandra.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the first protest for Beatty in a while. She said she hopes it “inspires people to get active.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got to say we’re here, we’re still fighting and join us,” she said. “That’s what I hope from the march, that it’s just the beginning.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED News’ Miranda Leitsinger contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

It would also prevent states from adopting any product standards governing “energy conservation or water efficiency.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Heritage Foundation, an influential conservative think tank, supports Burgess’s anti-regulatory drive on appliances, but it’s worried that his bill would curtail state rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t believe the federal government should mandate energy conservation,” said \u003ca href=\"http://www.heritage.org/about/staff/l/nicolas-loris\">Nicolas Loris\u003c/a>, a Heritage Foundation energy and environmental policy fellow who has analyzed Burgess’s bill. “But we don’t think the federal government should prohibit the states from doing so.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
