1. AB 32 “ “I SAY THE DEBATE IS OVER! “ AB 32 “GLOBAL WARMING SOLUTIONS ACT OF 2006 ” BY 2020, 30% REDUCTION TO 1990 LEVELS BY 2050, 80% REDUCTION TO 1990 LEVELS

3. 2004 Total Ag GHG Emissions in CA 2004 Total Ag GHG Emissions in CA (MMTCO2E) 1990 Baseline Emissions : 23.4 MMTCO2E (5% of Statewide total) 2004 Baseline Emissions: 27.9 MMTCO2E (6% of Statewide total) 2020 Preliminary Forecasted Emissions: 31.9 MMTCO2E

4. AB 32 Advisory Committees Market - create market-based compliance mechanisms for reducing GHG emissions Environmental Justice - reduce GHG emissions while maximizing the overall societal, economic, environmental, and public health benefits Economic Technology Advancement - activities that will facilitate investment in and implementation of technological research and development opportunities that will assist in GHG emission reductions Economic and Allocation – evaluate different allowance allocation strategies and how to structure a cap-and-trade system that will reduce GHG emissions

5. Potential Agriculture Strategies Livestock emissions Energy (biomass/biofuels/renewable energy) Efficiency improvements Land use/sequestration Research

6. Livestock Emissions Reduction of GHG emissions from livestock operations Potential Approaches Manure Management- methane digesters Enteric Fermentation-feeding additives

7. Production and use of renewable fuels in place of fossil fuels Potential Approaches Agricultural waste stream utilization Bio-fuel crops Renewable energy (solar, wind) Energy

8. Reduce GHG emissions through more efficient agricultural practices Potential Approaches Crop Management Water Management Pump Efficiency and Electrification Conservation Tillage Fertilizer Use Efficiency Efficiency Improvements

9. Research Explore improved agricultural practices and their impacts Potential Approaches Life Cycle Analysis Best Practice Protocols Fertilizer N 2 O Emissions

10. Campaign to Defeat the Dirty Energy Proposition Passage would effectively repeal Assembly Bill 32 (clean energy and air pollution reduction law) Claim that it ’ s simply a “ suspension ” is deceptive and untrue “ Suspend until unemployment reaches 5.5% for full year ” Unemployment only at that arbitrarily low point 3 times in last 3 decades

11. SAVE A MILLION JOBS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AB 32 = A Million Lost Jobs, Billions in Higher Energy and Other Costs Won ’ t Make a Difference in Global Warming
