Keynote Speaker:
Senator Fran Pavley
Prior to Fran Pavley's service in California's State Senate, she served three terms in the State Assembly. From landmark legislation on global warming, to laws that protect our children and families, improve our schools, and create a clean, secure, energy future, Fran continues to be an effective, responsive and respected legislator.
With the "Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006" (AB 32), Senator Pavley authored a groundbreaking approach to cap greenhouse gas emissions emitted from California. These new regulations will spur increased public and private investment in alternative fuels, renewable energy and clean technologies and produce "green collar" jobs to offset losses in California's technology and manufacturing sectors. Her foresight and leadership on these critical issues has been recognized at home and abroad. She has been recognized as one of Scientific American's Top Technology Leaders in Transportation, received the 2006 California League of Conservation Voters "Global Warming Leadership Award" with Vice President Al Gore, and travelled the globe to speak about California's groundbreaking approach to global climate change.
Fran Pavley also authored AB 1493, the landmark tailpipe emission reduction bill, the first global warming law in the nation. 11 other states have adopted the "Pavley Clean Car Regulations". Several other states and provinces in Canada will move forward on this same measure in 2007. Cleaning up our air and reducing greenhouse gas emissions will continue to be a priority for Fran Pavley.
