I wonder if these folks will be looking at all the possibilities of climate change? AB-32 is all about controlling global warming by reducing CO2.

Donner Summit in the California Sierras averages 34 feet of snowfall annually with an average maximum depth of 9.5 feet. Several times snowfall has exceeded 50 feet, and it doesn't melt until Spring. Since about 1/3 of rail and road commerce from California travels over the pass, keeping it open is extremely important and the state employs an army of machines and personnel, working in brutal conditions to do it.
