Nice to hear the thoughts from your panel, particularly after the legislative session. https://www.youtube.com/live/m0eOsktbU6M?t=13829s

I'd love to see the Coastal Commission require building electrification through their permitting process, similar to how they required certain hospitality businesses to provide no single use plastics. Given their focus on sea level rise and climate change, reducing fossil fuel use would be a do too. I’ve not looked into the issue since 2024. If nothing has changed, how about a 2026 bill to address it?

I like the Lucid ad, but it suggests a more powerful one: Same setup, broken-down bike, etc. Couple walks into research lab/warehouse, whatever, and sees not a Lucid but a Chinese-made EV being sold in the U.S. Trump through his actions is overseeing the end of the U.S. auto industry.
