Since the passage of AB 32, various state agencies have implemented regulations and programs in an attempt to meet the 2020 goals set forth in the legislation, and the state has since established goals for 2030.  The strategies in the AB 32 Scoping Plan have spanned many different sectors, including solid waste, agriculture, land use and transportation planning, forestry, fuels, vehicle emission standards, and large industrial operations such as refineries and cement manufacturers.  The state has completed a five-year update of the AB 32 Scoping Plan and has also established the Safeguarding California plan to detail how the state will mitigate the effects climate change will have on California’s communities and ecosystems.  RCRC is engaged throughout each update of the AB 32 Scoping Plan, and advocates for the interests of RCRC member counties throughout its implementation.
