Governor Schwarzenegger has an agenda to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions 25% by 2020 in California. The most promising way to
reach this goal is to give consumers the choice to buy
Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs), like the electric Tesla Roadster.

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.

I request the 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.
