Californians and the Energy Transition
Mark Baldassare and Tani Cantil-Sakauye
Most Californians support the state’s goals for reducing greenhouse gases and transitioning to renewable energy sources, but political and economic headwinds have amplified concerns about the costs—from the impact on jobs to prices at the pump. A new report examines how Californians view the effort and expense of addressing climate change.
Supported with funding from the Arjay R. and Frances F. Miller Foundation, the California Endowment, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, Ramsay Family Foundation, the Stuart Foundation, the Windy Hill Fund, and the PPIC Donor Circle.
As California works to meet its ambitious clean energy goals, challenges around cost, reliability, and sustainability persist. This half-day conference will bring together experts from across the state to examine the opportunities and obstacles in the energy transition—and explore practical paths to a cleaner energy future.
