Comment
California has been the leader in environmental action in the past.
Therefore I am hoping CARB will take comprehensive and strong
action to adopt the strongest possible ACF rule. There is no time
to waste in addressing air pollution in our state, especially from
the transportation sector! 

A strong ACF rule implements a zero-emission purchase requirement
for fleets of medium and heavy-duty trucks and would set targets
for 100% electric vehicle (EV) sales by 2036, addressing a huge
source of Californian pollution and making great progress towards
achieving Gov. Newsoms executive order that requires 100% of
heavy-duty truck fleets in California to be zero-emission by 2045.


Adopting the strongest possible ACF rule would also be a large step
towards a more equitable and just future for all. Low-income and
communities of color bear an unfair burden of harmful pollution
from these trucks as a result of generations of systematic
marginalization and this rule would improve air quality in
communities of color in close proximity to warehouses and
distribution centers all the while generating more than $10 billion
in societal benefits.

Please, make sure to adopt the strongest version of the ACF rule
and help California achieve an equitable future free of air
pollution.
