On September 8th, 2016 California Governor Jerry Brown signed into law Senate Bill 32 and Assembly Bill 197, establishing a new target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. Since the signing of Assembly Bill 32 a decade ago, California has proven to the world the feasibility of reducing emissions while simultaneously increasing jobs and growing the economy. The establishment of new laws clearly demonstrates California’s continued ambition to decarbonize its economy - now the state must determine the best policy path forward to meet its bold new climate target.
