To the editor: Thank you for your article on the disconcerting proposal of Mayor Karen Bass to close the climate emergency mobilization office, knowing that climate change will only become constantly and predictably worse every year (“Climate change is cooking Los Angeles. Does Karen Bass care?” May 1). We, the people, do not support Bass's decision, that's safe.
In 2023The California Public Policy Institute reported that 85% of Californians expressed concern about heat waves, with the highest concern rates among respondents who earn less than $ 40,000 a year (89%). If it was an answer to tax limitations, the proposal seems to me a penny case in terms of penny. Eaton's palisades and fires with climate change caused damage to bills of dollars. I urge the City Council to say no to the proposal, forcing Bass to reorder their priorities.
