Dear CA Air Resources Board,
I strongly urge you to
restore our state's leadership on electric vehicles by accelerating
the state’s transition to 100% EVs.
Pollution from
fossil-fuel-burning vehicles makes up 40% of total CO2 emissions in
our state. These vehicles are a huge cause of the climate
emergency, devastating our beautiful state with deadlier wildfires,
heat waves, and droughts.
The current clean cars
proposal falls short of the climate action we need. If we
don’t reach 100% zero-emission vehicle sales until 2035, it
will be too late for California to meet its goal of carbon
neutrality by 2045. Moving that target to 2030 will give our state
a significantly better chance of meeting its climate goals and
remaining a global leader when it comes to EVs.
I urge
you to adopt stronger clean car rules that require 100%
zero-emission vehicle sales by 2030.
Sincerely,
Michael Missiaen
San Francisco, CA 94109
