Attorney General Jerry Brown predicted last week the San Diego Association of Governments’ smart growth strategy would fail miserably at trimming local greenhouse gas emissions contributing to global warming.
Brown, who has been making headlines in recent months by suing local and federal agencies over California’s new climate change laws, grabbed regional leaders’ attention last week with a letter authored by his deputy, Sandra Goldberg. It charges the benefit of the association’s $280 million program will be diluted dramatically if divided among 193 designated smart growth areas, many in far-flung communities such as Ramona.
