221. That's two falsehoods about the San Joaquin Valley, in one post! Very efficient!

1) air pollution in San Joaquin Valley is the worst in Bakersfield, and is barely impacted by the Bay Area. without those emissions, Bakersfield would still have among the worst pollution in the nation.

2) the Los Angeles basin has more people, more cars than the Bay Area and San Joaquin Valley COMBINED, it arguably has had tougher circumstances to overcome to reduce pollution than San Joaquin Valley. Yet they have.

San Joaquin Valley has barely tried to deal with their worst pollution sources and nowhere near as strongly as the Los Angeles area has tried to deal with its own.

But the air district down there never threw up its hands and said that it's too hard, meanwhile you are justifying SJV just giving up.

Ridiculous. And you blame the Bay Area. The only area Bay Area pollution significantly impacts are barely over the air quality standards.
