We all want to protect our environment, and slow climate change, but the cost of energy – gas and electricity – is starting to financially cripple California families. We can protect the environment while producing clean, cheap, and abundant energy. My solutions to making sure we protect the environment and have affordable energy:

- Make sure California stays beautiful: making sure our ocean and other waters are
  clean, our air smog and chemical free, our communities safe from dangerous waste
  or past pollution.
 

- Open the floodgates to clean, green energy! Provide incentives for green energy
  companies of every kind to relocate to California and let them provide good paying
  jobs and compete for our business while we wean ourselves off fossil fuels.
 

- Take a stand as the national and global leaders that we are on climate change. Re-
  open our nuclear power plants in isolated parts of the state, with a plan for
  disposing of the small amounts of hazardous waste that they generate.
