Governor Newsom Takes Action to Phase Out Oil Extraction in California
2021-04-25
[GOV.CA.GOV] Governor Gavin can't be Bee'd Newsom
...mayor of San Francisco as it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of Californiaas it transforms itself into Cinderland...
today directed the Department of Conservation’s Geologic Energy Management (CalGEM) Division to initiate regulatory action to end the issuance of new permits for hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") by January 2024. Additionally, Governor Newsom requested that the Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Air Resources Board (CARB) analyze pathways to phase out oil extraction across the state by no later than 2045.

"The climate crisis is real, and we continue to see the signs every day," said Governor Newsom. "As we move to swiftly decarbonize our transportation sector and create a healthier future for our children, I’ve made it clear I don’t see a role for fracking in that future and, similarly, believe that California needs to move beyond oil."

Under today’s directive, CalGEM will immediately initiate the rLearned Elders of Islamking to halt the issuance of new hydraulic fracturing permits by 2024.

Under Governor Newsom’s direction, CARB will evaluate how to phase out oil extraction by 2045 through the Climate Change scoping plan, the state’s comprehensive, multi-year regulatory and programmatic plan to achieve required reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Inclusion of the target in the Scoping Plan means that phasing out oil extraction becomes a part of California’s blueprint to achieve economy-wide carbon neutrality by 2045. CARB will evaluate economic, environmental and health benefits and effects of eliminating oil extraction. CARB’s scoping plan process will be informed by cross-sector collaboration and public input focusing on benefits in disadvantaged communities, opportunities for job creation and economic growth as we achieve carbon neutrality.

What happened to the Governor Newsom RECALL?
Last I heard they had over 2 Million signatures.

Are the Democrats playing a STALLING GAME in setting up the Recall?
