@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @ActiveSGV @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal Though the story of the experience of communities like Bloomington is not untold, there remains much inertia against the solutions like #AB1000 which was unable to advance recently due to opposition. #CAClimateBudget
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA This would signal a commitment to safer, more affordable, and sustainable transportation and further help catalyze the market for these vehicles.
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA Finally, establishing partnerships with local governments, NGOs, and the private sector for green projects would demonstrate a solid commitment to these critical issues.
@climateplan @ActiveSGV @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @nailahph @LCJandA Fund transit EXPANSION. Particularly in high traffic corridors. Instead of tens of billions on freeways we should spend hundreds of millions on bus & bus-only lane on freeway corridors #CAClimateBudget

@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA Governor Newsom should also champion policies that incentivize the adoption of more affordable and energy-efficient small electric vehicles, such as e-family bikes, e-mopeds, and light electric vehicles. E-monster trucks and super-sized E-SUVs are not the answer.
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA Governor Newsom could allocate more resources and funding towards sustainable transportation projects, renewable energy, and climate resilience programs to signal that climate and transportation are priorities.
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @ActiveSGV @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal That transit cuts are cuts to our social safety net, while transit investments strengthen our social safety net & help everyone #CAClimateBudget
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @ActiveSGV @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal How the effects of climate change are affecting vulnerable societies and what community-based organizations are doing to help slow down climate change. Such as pilot programs that offer free transit and reduce GHG emissions. #CAClimateBudget #YOP
Im seeing advocate across the state calling out questionable transportation projects. We need medias help in amplifying that message! Yolo -80, State route 99 and I-15 are the top projects that come to mind!
The question we're most excited to hear about - which stories are you following that need to be told? #CAClimateBudget
@sacbike @MoveLATransit @ActiveSGV @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal We've been hearing from partners across the state about specific highway expansion related projects and would love for the advocacy and challenges around these stories to be picked up! I-80, I-15, state route 99, and the proposed southeast connector in Sacramento
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal Last but not least, there are some tremendous #SchoolYardGreening projects in the SGV moving forward, including the Norwood Elementary Greening Project, which is converting a decommissioned school into a public park for the local community. norwoodgreeningproject.com
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal The Merced Ave Linear Park in #ElMonte is another example of an amazing, community-driven local project transforming a dangerous street into a community amenity with new park space, a multi-use path, and native trees! mercedavepark.org
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal Locally, we would love to see the media pick up the BAAEC Advanced Energy Community project (advancedenergycommunity.org), which is transforming 50 homes in one of the most pollution-burdened cities in CA with solar, battery storage, and zero-emission electric appliances!
@climateplan @sacbike @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA @StreetsblogCal We hope the media will highlight stories that focus on the impacts of climate change on vulnerable communities, successful local initiatives in sustainability, and the importance of civic engagement in policy-making.
@climateplan @sacbike @ActiveSGV @MoveLATransit @NextGen_Policy @TransForm_Alert @TransbayC @nailahph @LCJandA We urgently need @CAlegislature to take the bold step of codifying the @AirResources VMT reductions into law so that we can begin working to achieve those goals. With all the low-hanging fruit quickly falling away, we need to start moving for much more ASAP. #CAClimateBudget
