SIGN THE LETTER: Bay Area for Clean Environment Letter to County Board of Supervisors

***SIGN THE LETTER: https://tinyurl.com/BACELetter

Join Bay Area for Clean Environment (BACE) in urging that the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors:

(1) Transition Away from Burning of Coal and Petroleum-coke in Santa Clara County, and

(2) Deny the 2019 Permanente Quarry Amended Reclamation Plan.

Santa Clara County could greatly cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from stationary sources if coal and petroleum-coke burning industries transition by 2030 to technologies that do not emit greenhouse gases. The largest single source GHG polluter in Santa Clara County is Lehigh Southwest Cement Company (Lehigh), which uses petroleum-coke as a fuel source to manufacture cement, releasing nearly a million metric tons of GHG emissions per year based on its 2016 reported emissions.
