Subject | Requiring zero emission electric vehicles |
Comment | I support any agenda to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 25% by 2020. The most promising way to reach this goal is to give consumers the choice to buy Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs), like the electric Tesla Roadster, or others that will soon come to market. Unfortunately, it appears as if 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. This is unwise and counterproductive. Please see to it that CARB: 1. Requires the full 25,000 ZEVs that automakers had promised for 2012-2014, and that it: 2. Creates 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. |
