The Environment


California is home to some of the most striking vistas and significant environmental resources in the world – from the incomparable beauty of Lake Tahoe to the rugged landscapes of the Mojave Desert.

During my time in the Senate, I have worked to preserve these and other natural resources in California and across the country for the enjoyment of future generations.

And today, global warming is my number one environmental priority. That is why I am working on a comprehensive package of legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from all sectors of the economy.

I am also working hard to promote a balanced energy policy that will meet the needs of California, while ensuring that our Nation’s natural treasures are protected.

Priorities

  • Combatting global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions – the primary cause of climate change – from across all sectors of the economy.
  • Cleaning up perchlorate in our food and water supply.
  • Restoring our most cherished national parks to prepare for the National Park Service’s Centennial in 2016.

Accomplishments

  • A new CALFED framework to improve water supply in the West.
