California now has the greatest number of RNG projects of any state, at 223. And with more than 600 fueling stations providing public and private access, RNG has become the dominant fuel in CA’s natural gas vehicle sector.

The consequences of air pollution are significantly increased for children and can last a life time. Children who are exposed to air contaminants are at higher risk for asthma, cancer, and premature death as adults.

A new study from UC Riverside shows dairy digesters can reduce atmospheric methane emissions by roughly 80 percent, a result that closely matches estimates California state officials have used in their climate planning. universityofcalifornia.edu/news/californi…

Communities of color bear the brunt of air pollution and are exposed to 40 percent more particulate air contaminants. By supporting renewable natural gas in transportation #caleg can help reduce harmful emissions and protect our most vulnerable.

The Calif. Air Resources Board is soliciting options for continuing progress toward clean air ww2.arb.ca.gov/zev-forward. We agree with the experts that deploying cleaner combustion technologies like RNG trucks is the most practical near-term solution.

Secretary Ross is a recognized leader on methane capture who is sharing her California #ClimateChange expertise with a fast-growing economic power. It takes all of us working together to get it done.

Thanks Ian Weissman, DO for calling attention to this. Extensive study of 30M people finds a "positive and statistically significant association" between dementia and long-term exposure to fine PM, NOx, and soot from vehicle exhaust emissions. upi.com/Health_News/20…

Including 50mg certified low NOx trucks in CA’s clean transportation strategy means faster near-term emissions reductions, particularly in communities hit hardest by pollution. We CAN continue progress toward air quality goals despite uncertain federal policies.

Landfills are the 3rd larges source of methane emissions in the U.S. The latest report released by Energy Visions says implementing practical, cost-effective measures can cut landfill methane emissions in half. energy-vision.org/wp-content/upl…

When it comes down to it, there really is no comparison between renewable #NatGas and diesel trucks. With the latest CARB regulations, here's where things stand.

#EnviroDefenseFund reports "Most of the methane emissions caused by people today come from the oil and gas industry, as well as the agriculture and waste sectors. So focusing on these three areas will improve people’s health the most." This is how we do it.

While heavy-duty trucks make up less than 3% of the vehicles on California’s roads, they emit roughly 35% of transportation-related NOx, a quarter of on-road greenhouse gas emissions, and 80% of diesel soot that is directly linked to cancer. It's time for a better solution.
