Comment:
Really, this is totally unnecessary. LCFSs help a little, but the truth is they will only hold down the rate of increase of CO2 emissions, not the absolute amount. Gasoline and diesel usage keep increasing with population vehicle growth. The best answer would be to ban the sale of new diesel and gasoline powered vehicles in CA beginning with model year 2028 and let existing vehicles live out their lives on gasoline or diesel. This is not the same thing as mandating ZEVs. The banning of new fossil fuel powered vehicles lets consumers buy as many EVs and H2s as they want, but also permits the sale of bio-ethanol or other bio-fuel powered vehicles which are truly net carbon zero.
