[applause] >> we will take some time for questions from whether we have that are not we are

if we were to unilaterally reduce our emissions, where are they going to go? they're going to go where they have the least restrictions. am i missing something there? >> no, you are not missing anything. as a matter of fact, under the, i testified before the house energy and power sub committee, and one of the key points i made is if we want to be serious about reducing global greenhouse gas emissions, the single most important thing we need to do is increase the manufacturing of products in the united states versus china, for example. >> exactly. >> we manufacture goods on average that has over, less than, well, turn it round the other way. when china produces goods they emit 300% more co2 than we do here. so if energy cost goes up here then it's going to result in more imports of these energy-intensive products. and as a reminder, 70% of our imports is from one country -- china. >> good to see you again. i had not seen what you, and i asked her to give me the printed copy of your study that you did, key findings, it's just fascinating. i've never seen, it co

it told the government to cut its carbon emissions by 25% by 2020. up from the current target of 17%. it was great news for supporters of the case. >> it's now obvious that at least judges in the new in the netherlands say. >> effects of climate change and its current plans simply don't go far enough. it said, the state must do more to avert the imminent danger caused by climate change. also in view of its duty of care to protect and improve the living environment. the state is responsible for effectively controlling the dutch emission levels. moreover, the costs of the measures ordered 50 court are not unacceptably high -- ordered bit court are not unacceptably high. >>> greener technologies technologies like wind power and solar farms have taken off here but dutch carbon emissions have lagged behind other states. using these issues to force the government's hand. >> negotiations for the european union and the climate treaty are watching so this will really be helpful for everything. >> the case could set an important legal precedent with similar on

, and 30% greenhouse gas inventory, comes from these vehicles -- in terms of regional policy for emissions reduction, we have 15% per capita emissions reduction, in greenhouse gasses, set for 2030 been our metropolitan transportation, commission -- targeting, 80% reduction, in greenhouse gasses, by 2050 below 19/90 levels -- electric vehicles, are the key to us achieving those goals, in terms of taking a look at what that means in raw numbers, that means by the year 2020 we need over 100,000 vehicles on the road 0 emission vehicles and by 2,025,250,000 vehicles. so where are we relative to those numbers today? the bay area represents 38% of california's total electric vehicle sales that means, the marketplace here is 10% of the national sales of vehicles, even with those numbers we're 1% of the total vehicle fleet here in the bay area, right now, with the electric vehicles the 37,000 number represents the eb rebates, we think there is another 20% on top of that we can add, so we're some where around 50,000 vehicles, in this region, in the year 2015 needing to go to 250,000 or more. so what

they want other nations to commit to decrease oil and gas emissions. there was cautious praise from green peace who said the summit had delivered. refs it was remarkable to see that even japan now needs to shift resources from funding coal fired power plants in other parts of the world towards renewable energy. with these kind of steps in funding and an increased public pledge at the conference in paris, there is hope. >> canada and japan may have managed to water down merkel's 2050 target for a low carbon economy, but they may have to become zero carbon by the end of the century. >> we are joined now on the line from germany. thanks for being with us here on "france 24." we have had a lot of pledges from world leaders about bringing down temperatures and carbon emissions, but we tend to see very little in terms of action. what is different this time around, do you think? >> i think that from a certain point of view, it is very important to listen to this decoration. all the duties are in front of us to get this off. we have to begin to slow down our e

and other states can use similar emissions tailored to their own circumstances. regi was started in 2005 by a bipartisan group of northeastern and mid atlantic governors. in addition to the participation in regi the states have energy efficiency. and there is a single emission cap and ensures that the carbon reduction is realized and accounted for. in proceeds from regi helps fund many of the initiatives creating a cycle of consumer benefits for taxpayers and rate payers. our program has been a resounding success. the state great lie exceeded the 10% reduction target achieving a 40% reduction by 2012. to achieve even gretter reduction, the regi states acted to further reduce the cap to 50% below 2050 levels in 2020. we achieved this reduction in an economy that grew 8% over the period from 2005-2013 adjusted for inflation. in new york we have realized economic benefits from regi and associated programs including creating jobs and reducing energy bills, for exam bell, governor cuomo's new york sun program has made it fourth in the nation for solar jobs. we've comm

it would have been based on emissions, right, or if it was an area source it would have been based on effect of health alone. so what, if anything, can we infer from that, from the fact that congress pointedly decided to treat power plants differently? >> i think we can tell that they're trying to create a different -- they're trying to create something different here than elsewhere. >> to create a different regime, the reason it is clear they were trying to create a different regime because they thought the acid rain program might have a real impact on what these electric utilities were doing. so they said, wait and see. let's see how the acid rain program works. let's see if we still have a problem to solve. and that's the reason why they put the electric utilities in a different category, isn't it? >> that highlights why costs are significant. the acid rain program in particular was an economically based approach. it was determined to regulate in a cost effective manner. >> the point is the acid rain pro-fwram didn't do what congress thought it might have done, and it was still lef

it would lead to much tighter emissions regulations ahead.the aviation industry says it knows it's a polluter, welcomes the legislation and doing allot to kill emissions. >> automobiles are 25% of the emissions, air craft are 2%. we're not saying that's nothing but we're working on the issue and this is another arrow in the quiver to address that. >> reporter: in fact according to the epa american planes are responsible for 11% in the transportation sector. 3% of all the greenhouse gas emissions and 29% of all greenhouse gas eapplications worldwide. the airline industry accounts for 5% gdp be but environmentalists say it is the only sector that goes unregulated when it comes to emissions. >> this is the only largely unregulated sector. greenhouse gases are a threat to our planet and they should be reduced and epa is only announcing its intent to reduce emissions. they're not telling the industry yet what it has to do. >> be so it's a prod. >> it's a prod. it's not even prod. it's a promise to prod. >> with new emissions standards come new tec

in their own emissions.at is an explanation. costs are what are missing. i do not know what your explanation is. >> i cannot accept the premise. both of the tax -- texts tell you what congress left open. the argument you're on or just posted was not in the history or the text. if congress really fought back then with a would have said to epa was, they can push the pause button. take the three years and study. study the cost problem. they would have told epa to study cost. they did not do that. >> if they were only concerned about health, with a not have imposed the same standards that are imposed on the area sources. if so, list. >> i think they came very close to that. they told epa to make the judgment after considering the results of the study. they told epa to study things that went to health hazards. that comes very close. the reason they use the appropriate and necessary language is because congress, when it was legislating in 1990, understood there might well be uncertainty at the end of this analysis

no, 35% below their current emissions. and we're talking about a part of the world whereabout 1.2 billion people have no access to electricity whatsoever. another 2.3 billion or so have only unreliable access to electricity. not enough to make their countries an attractive place to invest money so it is a huge hindrance, one of the major obstacles to their growth. now, let's get back to this. what if more realistically or less unrealistically we can only cut our emissions 80% by 2050? well then those very poor developing countries that lack modern commercial energy, 87% of which comes from fossil sources, they have to cut their emissions from today's levels pretty much in half. and so that is a humanitarian disaster in the making. there is a huge social and economic cost in such a disaster. and that is the kind of trajectory that they are trying to justify based on this pseudo science of social cost of carbon estimation. thank you. >>> we'll take some time for questions, whether we have it or not, we're taking it. and we h

will be further reduced by the federal executive order to cut the emissions by june 2, 0021, we'll meet those by asking the deserve to report and review to make sure the implementation of the best practices and consultation with our department of the environment san francisco has one of the greenest and friendly fleets in the country and this proposal makes san francisco the national leader still i want to personally thank our zoning administrator, what say you? office john our fleet administrator and office naomi kelly and jennifer and from others from my office of the department of the environment for their hard work and coming up with the fleet martin luther king policy the amendments were substantive i'll hope we'll make today but will have to sit in committee everyone is in agreement with the recommendation i'll be making a motion with that colleagues no questions turnover to the budget analyst report and move from there and. >> mr. chairman and members of the committee on page 17 of our report we note to the- will not be subject to the contract for the administrative code or envir

>> greenhouse gas emissions are fundamental to the purpose of the rfs. when we set up the program in our 2010 rule we did an evaluation of greenhouse gases. so the annual fuel volumes, we don't do an independent relook at greenhouse gas emissions. >> okay. i look forward to continuing to work with you. this is a critical industry and in my state as well as the other states here a critical part of energy independence in our country and with agricultural in particular. we have a special connection given the fact that i represent michigan which we like to believe is the center of the auto industry, as well. so i look forward to working with you. >> thank you. >> ms. mccabe, i appreciate you being here. let me walk through history we walked through together. 2010, final rule for the rfs was four months late. in 2011, it was a good year. it was only two weeks later. 2012, one and a half months late. 2013, nine months late. 2014, 18 months late and counting and 2015 six months late and counting. the challenge is once we get into '1 6/, '17, and '18, how does t

reducing emissions also provides substantial public health benefits including saving lives, reducing illness, health care costs and lost workdays. our experience demonstrates a group of states can reduce emissions substantially and grow the economy at the same time. therefore, instead of asking whether we can afford to reduce that pollution, a more pertinent question is whether we can afford not to act now to reduce the emissions that are causing our climate to change. in new york, we are already experiencing a destructive effects of climate-driven extreme weather. three years ago, hurricane sandy decimated many communities and tens of thousands of homes in new york and new jersey at a cost of $67 billion. over 70 lives lost in the area struck by the storm. a year earlier, hurricanes irene and lee caused 66 deaths and 17 billion in damage. these storms disproportionately harmed low-income families and smaller businesses and communities located in low-lying areas, most vulnerable to flooding. our nation -- our choice as a nation is straightforward. we can invest in clean energy creati

has ever attempted to go outside the source of the emission to reduce the emission. so we're not talking about not only coal-fired electricity plants, but the e.p.a. sets the standard for every state, the emission cap. and then they say you go fix it so the states are going to be forced to go to other industries and look at building materials in homes, to adopt renewable mandates to meet these very stringent standards. so it's a complex rule. eep -- e.p.a. usually gives three years to come up with a plan. in this instance they are giving them 13 months, which is unheard of. so this legislation is very simple. let's delay the state implementation plans until the courts render a decision. and i urge our members to support this commonsense legislation. and yield back. the chair: the time of the gentleman from kentucky has expired. all time for general debate has expired. pursuant to the rule, the bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule and shall be order to be considered as an original bill. an amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting

the emissions associated with it are well document. generally verified by contract. it's an extraordinary process, a great example in what areas we we focused in particular at naseo. a number of ongoing activities in addition to our coordination with naruc and trannineteen we are working on compliance studies and about seven or eight areas. do not call list did but they include use of combined heat and power by the private sector whether that's at a hospital or university or international plant estimates were efficient way to provide power in some cases. again capturing the emissions so we're developing case studies for states to consider about how that works at the state level and how they could capture those savings, how they might draft plan language. that maybe something a stay against consider pledging stay against consider pledging to the point and we are coordinating closely with the bills group on that. we are trying to provide as much as we can package options states can and should the plan before. we're doing that in other areas. i mentioned building energy

[applause] >> it told the government to cut its carbon emissions by 25% by by 2020 up by the currenttarget of 17%. it's great news for supporters of the case. >> they feel that liability has a role to play in addressing the climate problem. >> the landmark ruling says that the dutch government must protect its people from the effects of climate change, and it's current plans simply don't go far enough. the state must did more to avert the imminent danger caused by climate change also its duty of care to protect and improve the living environment. the state is responsible for effectively controlling the dutch emission levels, more over, the costs of the measures ordered by the court are not acceptbly high. the case was brought by the agenda foundation, which insists on a limit to global temperature rise of 2 degrees. greener technologies like wind power and solar farms have taken off here, but carbon energies have lagged in nery in nearby states. >> we're the first to do this. many are watching, and this could be very helpful for those who are watching. >> the dutch government said it

are on the books, what energy-saving said they producing and how are we verifying that and what emissions reductions come from that. these are capturing existing programs that are cost-effective in many cases on their own merit and we are not capturing the emissions benefits the weekend want to make sure we do that. in the industrial space there are great opportunities, largely private sector voluntary activities. we see that over and over again. there are state energy office is the operator assistance and financing programs for small and large industrial partners and stakeholders on the ground. the amount of savings that can be generated is enormous. unless it is inside a utility program is generally not captured for many missions perspective that the state level some another opportunity. i think you get the flavor here. just a chart that gives you a sense of the level of private investment in the public building sector at the state and local level. so right now we are at $6 million a year escalating over time, estimated to be $20 billion if you years down the road and these are largely

we saw this with vehicle emissions testing programs gasoline and other programs. we expected here. we will not panic, and stakeholders should enough as well. we will work through these issues. finally, last observation -- many of you are congressional offices and can help immensely in making this program work, should your bosses wanted to work. there are authorizing provisions in the clean air act under section 105 that provides grants to state and local agencies to intimate clean-air programs. -- to implement clean-air programs. the president recommended a significant increase in grants. congress will be marking up the epa budget next week. i hope you will take a close look at that. epa's clean power plan is being derived from the existing clean air act. it is safe to say that it opponents of reducing greenhouse gases have their way, they would prefer that are legislation. i think even a regulated community would prefer federal legislation. but we will not see federal legislation in this congress. and i don't know about the next congress. this is exactly why epa has used existing

the proposal to greenhouse emissions and the electricity power sector. that has led to many kinds of analyses, to webinars, to briefings across the country and certainly across washington. even this week, i saw many more analyses and white papers that were being released. all of this has been accelerated because it is anticipated that the administration, after having received in excess of 4 million comments, will be issuing a revised, final clean power plan later this summer. either in july or august. summer, either july or august. i think one of the most important things for us to recognize -- and we will hear much more about that this morning -- is that over the course of the last year is that there have been three organizations that are national in scope that have been working together, sharing information questions, concerns, and looking for possible options and solutions that make sense for their states. they have been all about trying to identify a way forward how does one best address this will issue of reducing emissions in this obviously critica

a 30% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions to 2005 levels by 2030. you look at that in think that is 15 years or so for utilities to comply. it's a pretty significant lead time to comply. but another part of this is that the epa has said -- set an interim goal that requires a large chunk of these emissions reductions to take place not in 2030, but 10 years earlier in 2020. this has been referred to as the cliff, because many are concerned that utilities and states will have a difficult time meeting this interim deadline of 2020, 10 years before the final deadline. this has been a core of a lot of the criticism of this proposal. and that's why i said at the outset that we shouldn't panic over proposal. we should be thoughtful about what happens after finalization. i am pretty sure that this cliff, this interim deadline will be changed when epa finalizes its rules. another very important part of this is that each state gets an emissions target goal under the clean power plan. every state's goal is going to be different, it's going to be a rate a school

since 2005 our two nations have reduced carbon emissions more than any other countries in the world.il this includes very impressive efforts to combat deforestation including in the amazon what is sometimes called the lungs of the planet. together our countries are leaders in clean energy. we're taking tanth new steps. i thank our brazilian friends for previewing elements of their post 2022 targets, including substantial new goals to eliminate illegal deforestation. beyond hydro power, the united states and brazil will aim to increase renewable energy to 20% by the year 2030. these are ambitious goals, a near tripling for the united states and more than double brazil's current output. following progress during my trips to china and india, this shows the world's major economies can work together to confront the common challenge that we face something that we have to work on for future generations, and i'm confident that this will lead to a strong outcome in paris. third, we're working to deepen our defense cooperation. under president rousseff's leadership two important agreements wer

the increased use of natural gas as lowered the greenhouse emissions. statutorily the epa is required to release the mandated volume by november 30th of the previous year. the epa has not met this deadline since 2009 and we're still waiting epa for the final version of the 2014 volumes even though the year in question has been over for six months. when the announcement was made in november of last year that we would not see a final rule until the calendar was over, the agent cited significant controversy as the reason. seemingly this program is unworkable in its current form and there's a tremendous amount of controversy around it and a lot of opinions and emotions around this particular issue. on june 1st 2015, the proposed mandates for 2014, '15 and '16 were all released together. we need to take a sere i didn't say look at whether the delays are unavoidable every year now under current laup. the prosed requirements include increased unattainable at times levels of renewables and those quotas for the gasoline supply over the next year and a half. pea

why you're not looking at greenhouse gas emissions? >> well, we do -- under under pinning of this program is a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. as more and more biofuels get into the admission, and the cellular biofuels that is where the reductions can be. as you know, in order to qualify as an advanced biofuels, the greenhouse gas emissions need to be 50% less and 60% less. and that is where we want the growth to be and that is happening. of course volumes have been increasing steadily over time. not to the level that the statute called for but they have been steadily increasing over time. it would take the cellular biofuel from 33 gallons to 206 gallons in 2016. that is substantial. not as much as congress anticipated or hoped for but from where we are now, that represents substantial growth. and my point to senator peters was in each annual volume rule we don't reanalyze emissions but we know the greenhouse gas reductions associated with the category and by growing the volumes by setting the targets to drive that growth in a r
