Comment | Dear California Air Resources Board, I am writing today to ask that you not weaken the current Zero Emission Vehicle regulations that you so valiently promoted. As you well know, zero emission vehicles reduce air pollution thereby fighting global warming. Now, with awareness of all things GREEN, these requirements should be strengthened not weakened. As a potential car purchaser, I am concerned about air pollution and the high price of gasoline. I would like to have the option of purchasing a ZEV and reducing my own carbon footprint. This is unlikely to be available, though, if automakers are only required to make 150 ZEV vehicles per year. Finally, I fully support the staff's proposal to significantly increase the number of plug-in hybrids that must be produced and appreciate staff's vision in including these cars in the ZEV requirements. A plug in hybrid is a great option for consumers like me. Again, I implore you not to weaken the Zero Emission Vehicle regulations. Sincerely, Karen O'Rourke |
