SINKING CARBON AND RAISING LIVING STANDARDS
While many Californians consider buying hybrid cars and unplugging
their computer, most of the world's 6 billion people covet having any
kind of car and can only dream of having a laptop one day. Yet
fighting global climate change will require lifestyle changes by
everyone. How can that happen without slamming the world's poor, who
are most vulnerable to the health and weather effects of global
warming? How can California's innovation in climate policy and
technologies help by decoupling carbon emissions from GDP growth?
