A bipartisan group of California mayors is urging lawmakers to approve legislation from Sen. Fran Pavley (D-Agoura Hills) that would extend the state’s targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The measure, SB 32, would set a goal of 40% below 1990 levels by 2030, an increase from the current target of hitting 1990 levels by 2020. “Our cities continue to bear witness to the consequences of a changing climate,” the mayors wrote. “From record heat and fire to the continued water quality and availability challenges fo the drought, we are increasingly challenged by the consequences of climate change.”
