Gov. Brown Signs Calif. Climate Change Bill for Renewables, Efficiency

"California launched an ambitious effort Wednesday to expand renewable energy and increase energy efficiency, advancing Gov. Jerry Brown's plans for battling climate change.

Brown signed the new goals into law at Griffith Observatory, where the panoramic view of smog across the Los Angeles Basin provided a reminder of the work to be done.

Although the state's air quality has improved over the years, Brown said, more must be done to improve Californians' health, and the state must continue setting the standard for halting global warming."

Chris Megerian and Javier Panzar report for the Los Angeles Times October 7, 2015.
