Oil and gas.

Summary

The bill would make the State Air Resources Board produce a yearly greenhouse‑gas assessment of oil moved into California and post it online, while the Energy Commission would share data, list countries that export oil to the state, and flag those with documented human‑rights abuses or weaker environmental standards. It also directs the Geologic Energy Management Division to link to air‑quality data for imported oil and requires the Energy Commission to display cost and air‑quality impact reports for potential tanker imports of 5‑10% of the gasoline supply. The goal is greater transparency about the climate, health and ethical implications of oil imports.
