Satirical video brought to us by Americans for Prosperity exposing what CARB might do if it had the opportunity to redesign Christmas.  From replacing Rudolph’s famous red nose with an energy efficient light bulb to reducing the horsepower of the sled, this video will have you laughing and crying at the same time.  This is Christmas [...]

The Ventura County Star has taken notice of the fact that unprecedented numbers of citizens have begun to speak out against CARB’s draconian cap and trade proposal.  Comments on cap and trade will become part of the public record, and energy users have already left hundreds of comments demanding an immediate halt to the cap [...]

The Los Angeles DWP will impose rate hikes that officials estimate are likely to be 8% per year.  The costly energy rate increases are a result of AB 32 combined with the city of Los Angeles’ own green mandates.  While these costs will be devastating to already strapped families and businesses, radical environmentalists are expressing [...]

Al Gore admitted that his advocacy of ethanol was a mistake driven by political calculations.  Gore joins other environmentalists who now realize biofuels drive up the cost of gas and food while using large quantities of fossil fuels to produce in the first place.  CARB has not yet gotten the memo, and is proceeding with an [...]

The California Air Resources Board recently attempted to ban speech they disagree with, “forbidding” opposing views and threatening “penalties” for dissent. Jon Coupal of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association exposes a bizzare CARB proposal that attempts to make CARB the ultimate arbiter of truth even while scandals and proposals such as this have decimated the [...]

Hillarious parody of CARB’s punitive attitude toward California job creators.  Watch a trucker go to Mary Nichols to try to open a business, only to become so frustrated with her that he asks her if she is “completely retarded” while she insists that she is a “very big deal” who is “trying to save the world.” [...]

Beginning in January, CARB is set to begin implementing its “low carbon fuel standard,” which requires the addition of bio-fuels to gas.  The low carbon fuel standard is expected to raise the price of gas by 30 to 80 percent over the next five years.  Bio-fuels are fuels derived from food, usually corn or Brazilian [...]

Farmers are raising concerns that the comment period ahead of CARB’s hearing on proposed cap and trade regulations is too short.  The regulations are 3,000 pages and energy users have until December 16th to analyze and respond to them.  Farmers already are saying cap and trade could lower commodity prices, raise energy prices and lead to additional [...]

Wall Street Journal columnist George Gilder writes Silicon Valley’s opposition to Prop. 23 was a disturbing development where companies that once led the way in innovation now are pouring money into efforts to protect costly taxpayer subsidies for ventures that are incapable of competing in the free market.  Like many public sector unions, the green [...]

Sempra, parent company of the SG&E utility, opposed Prop. 23 because it stood to make millions from a deal with CARB where it was guaranteed millions in profits from global warming rate increases on energy consumers.
