Climate change: California Senate approves legislation to combat global warming
Santa Cruz Sentinel ^ | 06/03/15 | Jessica Calefati

The state Senate on Wednesday approved a far-reaching array of bills designed to cement the Golden State’s reputation as an international leader in the fight against climate change.

If enacted, the legislation will trigger a fundamental shift in the kinds of cars and trucks Californians drive and the way they power their homes. New targets would force industries to create more renewable energy, make more vehicles that don’t burn gasoline and further slash greenhouse gas emissions.

You better come visit California now before all of our magnicent vistas are covered with windmills and giant piles of dead birds lie below them. Visit now while you can still rent a real automobile, not a tiny clown car.

Crap!

With California combating global warming, global warming could become a serious problem.

I would venture to guess it's a mega-money-laundering/wealth redistribution network which ultimately funds the chaos we witness around the globe.

California seems to be the testing ground for most experimental socialist programs these days. They don’t seem to get much pushback there especially in the Southen half and San Francisco from what I’ve noticed.

The big problem with this is that it will probably price a lot more businesses and people out of California.

They’ll go to more business and employment-friendly states, but take their Liberal policy proclivities with them. If California goes into an economic death spiral, the predominant analysis won’t be because the policies were insane, but rather that the wrong people had botched the implementation of them.

I don’t have much of a problem with a state going down that road either. The states are supposed to be incubators of new ideas and policies.

I’d just rather it be a Progressive paradise like California going down this particular road, and not the state I live in.

Actually I do care. Under the principle that sometimes your purpose in life is to act as a warning to others.

Well, you forgot George Bush too, of course.

How come EVERY solution to this hoax involves tax payer money and more government control? (yes, this is a rhetorical question)

The Golden State is now The Moonbat state. Sad.
