DonateSB 582: Commuter dividends: pollution and pocketbook savings
We all know that our cars are the largest source of greenhouse gases and ozone pollution in California with about 40% of transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions coming from commuting. SB 582 (Yee) would have authorized a 4-year pilot program to allow metropolitan planning organizations and local air quality management districts to adopt a regional commuter benefit policy.
