Subject | Save the Electric Car - Reclaim our Clean Air |
Comment | I feel that it is vital to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2020 for our grandchildren's clean air. The most promising way to reach this goal is to give consumers the choice to buy Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) and encourage our legislators to provide consumers with tax incentives for doing the right thing. Unfortunately, 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. Please ask your appointed CARB chair, Mary Nichols, to 1. Require the full 25,000 ZEVs that automakers had promised for 2012-2014, and 2. Create 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. |
