California's clean energy programs, including cap-and-trade, have helped the Inland Empire's economy more than they've hurt — that's the conclusion of a new study from UC Berkeley and the public policy organization Next 10.
California legislators are on the verge of voting whether or not to extend the state’s cap-and-trade program — one of the policies critical to meeting the state’s long-term climate change goals.
A new report from Next 10 got a lot of press last week. Its basic premise bears repeating: raising the gas tax is not a long-term solution for funding California transportation.
According to a analysis brief commissioned by the nonprofit nonpartisan organization Next 10 and prepared by Beacon Economics, California has some of the worst roads in the United States with over two-thirds of the State's roads in poor shape.
A report released Monday by a San Francisco nonprofit says that while new state legislation provides billions for California’s roads, the money won’t be enough to maintain the state’s roads long term.
