Loni Hancock represents Berkeley and other parts of the East San Francisco Bay in the California Assembly

Loni Hancock is Chair of the California State Assembly Natural Resources Committee and Co-Chair of the Legislative Environmental Caucus. Assemblymember Hancock was the first woman to serve as the Mayor of Berkeley, California, and, as can be seen from the notice about Earth Day on her legislative web site, is an strong environmentalist.

As Chair of the Natural Resources Committee, she presided over the April 16, 2007, demise, on a 3-to-6 vote, of Republican Assemblymember Chuck DeVore’s AB 719, the “California Zero Carbon Dioxide Emission Electrical Generation Act of 2007.”

Loni Hancock spoke today with Nuclear Power Channel reporter Marc Strassman about the demise of AB 719 and about her own vision of California‘s energy future, which includes caps on greenhouse gases and expanded use of renewable energy sources, including wind and solar power.
