Ben co-authored the Senate’s historic climate change legislation\, which requires 50% of the state’s energy to come from renewable sources\, and doubles energy efficiency in buildings\, by 2030. He authored bills to expand the state’s efforts to combat climate change even further\, includ­ ing establishing the first standard to increase the use of renewable gas\, and reducing toxic motor oil waste. He is leading the effort to end the use of harmful drift gillnets in commercial fishing off the coast that injure and kill endangered sea turtles and other marine life – it passed the Senate floor and is now heading to the Assembly. Senator Ben Allen also introduced legislation to reduce waste generated by take-out food packaging at state parks\, beaches\, and facilities. \nBen truly is an Eco Star! \nEvent Sponsors \nPlatinum: HBO\nGold: First Republic Bank\nSilver: Cedars-Sinai \nEvent Location\nGold: Capital One Cafe\n401 Broadway\nSanta Monica\, CA 90401\nCan’t Attend?\nYou can support us by making a donation!
