California to ban sale of diesel and gasoline cars as early as 2035
Governor Gavin Newsom said in a statement, this is the most effective step our state can take to combat climate change. According to the document, California's highly developed transportation sector is responsible for more than half of the state's carbon emissions.
The ordinance signed Wednesday asks the agency responsible for air quality in California to develop legislation that will result in all cars sold in the state from 2035 to be zero emissions. In other words, only vehicles running on electricity, hydrogen and certain hybrid vehicles can be marketed on Californian soil, which would have the effect of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 35% and by 80%. those of nitrogen oxide.
The west coast of the United States, and in particular California, has been plagued since last month by gigantic fires that have killed more than thirty people and destroyed thousands of buildings. According to scientific consensus, the exceptional scale of these forest fires is in part linked to climate change, which exacerbates chronic drought and causes extreme weather conditions.
