For what it is worth I dug out my old graph on what effect Californias 26% reduction in emssions law might acheive in terms of Global Warming Temperature reductions. To understand this graph:
1. The graph
ASSUMES that the UN Report on warming is TRUE and then compares California's reductions if apllied ONLY to California, Only to the Northeast and finally...if the ENTIRE USA adopted this plan AND achieved the goal of a 26% reduction by 2016.
2. The AB 1493 referred to is Assembly Bill 1493 in support of the Air Resources Board.
3. The RED line is the UN projected increase in temperature over time. The Dark Blue line is ifg JUST California implements the law. The light blue line is if the entire industrial northeast adopted the law and the Purple line is if the whole country adopted the law.
