1) Strong greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets from all sources — energy, transportation, industry, and agriculture — leading California toward carbon neutrality.
2) Significant investments in renewable power with the goal of 100% clean energy as soon as possible with priority for local solar and wind projects that create good jobs for Californians.
3) Advancing climate justice by ensuring the participation in policy decisions by those on the front lines of climate impacts and tangible benefits for communities that have borne the brunt of fossil fuel pollution.
