| Comment | To Whom It May Concern,
Our economy is in shambles. Many have lost their homes, jobs,
healthcare etc. So why are we adding another nail in the coffin of
our state economy?
For many many years, diesel emisions we're deemed less harmless
than the traditional combustable engine powered by gasoline.
Literally overnight, the attitude towards diesel has changed and is
now considered a dangerous pollutant to humans. Why?
The diesel powered trucks, off-road equipment and small engines
of yesterday would easily surpass the fuel economy of todays
gasoline powered vehicles and equipment. And now we've had to
retrofit our diesel engines with soot traps and particulate filters
that are, without a doubt, choking the performance of these engines
and has drastically changed the fuel economy for the worse.
I ask, how are these new emision controls and laws maiking the
environment better for our planet and human health if we have to
consume more oil to clean up the air?
