Subject | ZEV incentive support |
Comment | I wish to express my support for continued funding of CARB ZEV incentive programs. These programs have been effective at their mission, and need to be continued now more than ever. We are at a cusp point in history, and in danger of temporarily falling backward due to the temporary "low" price of gasoline. We've seen great progress in the last couple of years though, and with a few key incentives in place, California can lead the nation in successfully encouraging a cleaner, quieter, and more economical vehicle experience. This is happening *now* not 5 or 10 years from now. Fund now, push adoption rates over the edge into mainstream, then let the state benefit from not just the cleaner air, but the jobs and technology benefits, and resulting tax income, for what is currently predominately a California led industry. If we wait, we lose momentum. It will still happen, but California will benefit less, and the public won't benefit as fast, nor (I suspect) as much. |
