"San Diego is dominated by automobile usage as a result of our increasing population, suburban lifestyles, and land use decisions dating back to the early 20th century. For example, only 3% of our workforce commutes to work using public transportation (ranking 33rd out of 50 cities). 76% of San Diegans drive to work alone; 10% carpool, leading to one of the highest congestion rankings in the country (41 of the 50 largest cities)." - Equinox Center

Increasing renewable energy not only improves air quality, but it increases energy security by diversifying our energy portfolio. In addition, renewable energy sources like solar systems can produce energy during peak usage times to help with excess demand on the grid -- for example, when it is hot and there is high demand for air conditioning, solar photovoltaic systems generate more power.
