Comment
Dear CARB,

It is extremely important that CARB not weaken the current Zero
Emission Vehicle regulations. Global warming is not a "sky is
falling" fairy tale.  It's really true.  And, CARB must play a
major role in protecting our only planet.  

Zero emission vehicles not only reduce air pollution, but help in
the fight against global warming. In fact, now is the time to
strengthen, not weaken, these requirements.

As a potential car purchaser, I am concerned about pollution as
well as the high price of gasoline. I would very much like to have
the option of purchasing a zero emission vehicle and reducing my
own impact in these areas. This is unlikely to come to pass,
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 that has an all-electric range, but
that also runs on gasoline when the battery is empty, is a great
option for consumers like me.


Sincerely,
HolLynn D'Lil
