Subject | I support the Advance Clean Fleets rule! |
Comment | I request that CARB take comprehensive and strong action to adopt the strongest ACF rule to help greatly reduce greenhouse gas emissions on all possible levels of transportation, etc. We must address and end greenhouse gas emissions and toxic air pollution, which has formerly and routinely been produced 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 will set targets for 100% electric vehicle (EV) sales by 2036, and hopefully 100% clean-renewable energy generation for infrastructure supporting these vehicles, thereby addressing a large source of Californian pollution and making needed progress towards achieving 100% of heavy-duty truck fleets in California to be zero-emission by 2045. Adopting the required, strongest possible ACF rule will also be a step towards a more equitable and just future for all. People inhabiting low-income communities, and communities of color, have been allowed to bear an unfair burden of extremely harmful pollution from transport trucks as a result of generations of systematic marginalization. This rule will serve to improve air quality in communities of color that remain in close proximity to warehouses and distribution centers, all the while generating increases in societal benefits. Please adopt the strongest version of the ACF rule in order to help California continue to achieve an equitable future free of toxic air pollution. Thank you. |
