California on Thursday is expected to put into effect its sweeping plan to prohibit the sale of new gasoline-powered cars by 2035, a groundbreaking move that could have major effects on the effort to fight climate change and accelerate a global transition toward electric vehicles.
“This is huge,” said Margo Oge, an electric vehicles expert who headed the Environmental Protection Agency’s transportation emissions program under Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama. “California will now be the only government in the world that mandates zero-emission vehicles. It is unique.”
The rule, issued by the California Air Resources Board, will require that 100 percent of all new cars sold in the state by 2035 be free of the fossil fuel emissions chiefly responsible for warming the planet, up from 12 percent today. It sets interim targets requiring that 35 percent of new passenger vehicles sold in the state by 2026 produce zero emissions. That would climb to 68 percent by 2030.

Electric vehicles will go by the wayside hydrogen is making fast forward moves Porch BMW and many other car companies have started to produce them.
Now even passenger jets and trains are using hydrogen fuel it’s a win win deal no black outs or need for rare minerals less emissions to produce them and a much lower cost to purchase a car.
Even China is in on the production of it in fact they are leading the market now.
Federal/State gas taxes will be null so they will make that revenue up by taxing EV by the miles they drive, some other EV tax, etc.
I read while back thieves already stealing the copper from the EV charging machines.

Back then, the CARB began the phaseout of charcoal BBQs and gas-powered lawn mowers.
