If you’re interested in learning more about Sonoma County’s emerging response to Global Climate Change, this document will make for good Sunday morning reading: Link

If you’re a “cut to the chase type”, the Next Steps: Moving From Plan to Implementation begins on page 57, though I think taking an hour or so to read the “why behind the what” in the preceding 56 pages is well worth it. 500 more pages of backup material can be found here.
The group also made a presentation to the City Council during the December 1st evening session: Link
The graph on page 17 is especially useful in illustrating the huge challenge we have to reduce the greenhouse gases associated with transportation (personal, commercial and municipal). I hope Obama's plan is full of intersections with this document's "to do" list.

I think the Petaluma General Plan largely relies on the action plan of this Committee to meet Petaluma's greenhouse gas reduction targets (in the absence of concrete guidelines/requirements from the state at the time the GP was developed and adopted).
