| Comment | I feel that it is vital to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25%
by 2020 for our grandchildren's clean air.
The most promising way to reach this goal is to give consumers the
choice to buy Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) and encourage our
legislators to provide consumers with tax incentives for doing the
right thing.
Unfortunately, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) may
reduce the number of ZEVs required of automakers by 90%, settling
for only 2,500 from 2012-2014.
Please ask your appointed CARB chair, Mary Nichols, to
1. Require the full 25,000 ZEVs that automakers had promised for
2012-2014, and
2. Create a separate requirement for plug-in hybrids that lets
them replace the dirtiest vehicles in CARB's regulations, rather
than the cleanest ZEVs.
Choice for consumers means cleaner air for everyone.
