Bicycling Monterey 💚🌎🌍🌏<p>Representatives from 60 climate, transportation, and environmental justice advocacy organizations sent a letter today (full text in post) to Governor Gavin Newsom, urging him to hold the California Department of Transportation (<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Caltrans" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Caltrans</span></a>) accountable to his climate vision. Recent developments at Caltrans threaten the state’s reputation as a leader in fighting climate change, including through disregard for the governor’s climate action agenda for the transpo sector, the Climate Action Plan for Transportation Infrastructure (CAPTI).</p><p>Bicycling Monterey is among the signatories because Caltrans’ implementation of CAPTI has been marked by continued expansions of highways and interchanges, persistent neglect of its own guidance for reducing vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas emissions, and repeated efforts to dilute its <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/CompleteStreets" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CompleteStreets</span></a> policy.</p><p><a href="https://bikemonterey.org/governor-urged-to-hold-caltrans-accountable-to-californias-climate-action-plan-for-transportation-infrastructure.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bikemonterey.org/governor-urge</span><span class="invisible">d-to-hold-caltrans-accountable-to-californias-climate-action-plan-for-transportation-infrastructure.html</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ClimateAction" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ClimateAction</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/California" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>California</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/CAPTI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CAPTI</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ClimateJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ClimateJustice</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/EnvironmentalJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EnvironmentalJustice</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/transportation" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>transportation</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/infrastructure" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>infrastructure</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/CarbonEmissions" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CarbonEmissions</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ClimateCrisis</span></a></p>
