    Air Regulators Turned Lobbyists Lead To False Conclusions About Need For Carbon Capture in Cap-and-Trade, Consumer Watchdog Tells Legislative Leaders

    LOS ANGELES, Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As lawmakers take up Cap-and-Trade for extension to 2045, they should reject any lobbyist pressure to include Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) in Cap-and-Trade, the state’s central greenhouse gas reduction program that caps emissions and mandates companies trade pollution allowances, Consumer Watchdog told legislative leaders today.

    “Some regulators turned oil lobbyists shaped the Cap-and-Trade program from within CARB, feathering their nests for future work for regulated companies,” Consumer Watchdog wrote in a letter to Senate President pro Tem Mike McGuire and Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas. “Among their clients are oil giants peddling false climate solutions such as CCS. Their lobbyists push the view that CCS is positive. In fact, the process of capturing emissions from industrial smokestacks is polluting, fossil-fuel intensive and is far more likely to fail than succeed, according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis. The dedicated pipelines to transport compressed carbon for burial are also dangerous because CO2, if leaked, is a potentially lethal asphyxiant.”
