When Coalition board members met Nov. 13 to hash out goals for 2019, a clear consensus emerged: the need to achieve as much as possible in the short term.
While CARB’s approved $483 million 2018–19 Funding Plan for Clean Transportation Incentives supports NGVs, it does not provide all the features that the Coalition pressed for.
CARB, Gov. Jerry Brown, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, and 21 other attorneys general have formally rejected the Trump administration’s proposal to loosen greenhouse gas emission standards and fuel efficiency rules.
In the final bill signing of his four terms as California’s governor, Gov. Jerry Brown approved a number of clean transportation bills that underscore the state’s commitment to NGVs.
With Gov. Jerry Brown’s new executive order calling for California to cut overall emissions to zero by 2045, the high greenhouse gas emissions from the state’s transportation sector loom larger than ever.
