for some this won't matter. for some it will seem insignificant. for some it will seem so far into the "future" as to not be relevant to "them".

but the old adage quite reasonably portends, "as goes california, so goes the rest of the "country"!

btw and not for nothin" the "tax per mile" that is already being debated (* and passed iirc? ) in Oregon, is being readied ( debated?? ) here in Sacto for CA law and WILL SOON be state law. this will enact well before the act referenced above! and this in addition to the +/- buck a gal we currently pay to the fed in "use" taxes.

there's more to be concerned about if you drive your car(s) for pleasure than first meets the eye. it's comin' folks, so enjoy "it" while you can

(2) Existing law requires the State Air Resources Board to adopt and implement various standards related to emissions from motor vehicles. This bill would require those standards to be in furtherance of achieving a reduction in petroleum use in motor vehicles by 50% by January 1, 2030. The bill would require the state board, by January 1, 2017, to prepare a strategy and implementation plan to achieve this reduction.

Try the new clean water act if you want to see something scary as a landowner with streams on it. As for cars its only a short time before tuning modding and the like is a track only thing. They want anyone with anything to share and suffer. Laugh now cry later.

"The Great Lakes, 5 bodies of water that collectively make up the largest body of freshwater on Earth, accounting for 1/5 of the planet’s freshwater; are currently being ravaged by corporate interest. As of 2006, a loophole in the Great Lakes Compact has allowed for private parties to exploit the Great Lakes for corporate profit. The corporation, Nestle, is leading the charge. Nestle is selling actual boatloads of Lake Michigan water to China for a profit of $500,000—$1.8 million per day."

Nestle Continues Stealing World’s Water During Drought
Nestlé is draining California aquifers, from Sacramento alone taking 80 million gallons annually. Nestlé then sells the people's water back to them at great profit under many dozen brand names.

The city of Sacramento is in the fourth year of a record drought – yet the Nestlé Corporation continues to bottle city water to sell back to the public at a big profit, local activists charge.

The Nestlé Water Bottling Plant in Sacramento is the target of a major press conference on Tuesday, March 17, by a water coalition that claims the company is draining up to 80 million gallons of water a year from Sacramento aquifers during the drought.

The coalition, the crunchnestle alliance, says that City Hall has made this use of the water supply possible through a “corporate welfare giveaway,” according to a press advisory.

A coalition of environmentalists, Native Americans and other concerned people announced the press conference will take place at March 17 at 5 p.m. at new Sacramento City Hall, 915 I Street, Sacramento.

The coalition will release details of a protest on Friday, March 20, at the South Sacramento Nestlé plant designed to “shut down” the facility. The coalition is calling on Nestlé to pay rates commensurate with their enormous profit, or voluntarily close down.

“The coalition is protesting Nestlé’s virtually unlimited use of water – up to 80 million gallons a year drawn from local aquifers – while Sacramentans (like other Californians) who use a mere 7 to 10 percent of total water used in the State of California, have had severe restrictions and limitations forced upon them,” according to the coalition.

“Nestlé pays only 65 cents for each 470 gallons it pumps out of the ground – the same rate as an average residential water user. But the company can turn the area’s water around, and sell it back to Sacramento at mammoth profits,” the coalition said."

 

Yes my wife and I have watched programs on this and find it unbelievable. Wait until the new UN NWO manifesto is in effect= starts next month.

 

more well informed members of the citizenry. good to know.

 

the political opposition to SB-350 has begun taking out tv adverts warning of the portentousness of this bill.

i'm sure that most folks out here in la la land know nothing if not very little about this bill or what it will mean over the next 15 years here in CA.
