Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.), perhaps unsatisfied with the misery of rolling blackouts to which ill-considered climate restrictions have subjected Californians, has ordered that no new gas-powered cars shall be sold in California beginning in the year 2035. What could possibly go wrong?

California “is phasing out the internal combustion engine,” the governor tweeted in announcing his sweeping executive order. “By 2035 every new car sold in CA will be an emission free vehicle. Cars shouldn’t give our kids asthma. Make wildfires worse. Melt glaciers. Or raise sea levels.”

NEW: We’re facing a climate crisis.

We need bold action.

CA is phasing out the internal combustion engine.⁰
By 2035 every new car sold in CA will be an emission free vehicle.

The executive order

Newsom’s executive order requires that “sales of all new passenger vehicles” must be “zero-emission by 2035.” Through the order, Newsom directed the Air Resources Board to develop regulations to ensure that “all operations of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles shall be 100 percent zero emission by 2045 where feasible.”

The governor’s office claimed that the transportation sector is responsible for more than half of California’s carbon pollution, 80 percent of smog-forming pollution, and 95 percent of “toxic diesel emissions.”

“This is the most impactful step our state can take to fight climate change,” Newsom said in a statement. “For too many decades, we have allowed cars to pollute the air that our children and families breathe. Californians shouldn’t have to worry if our cars are giving our kids asthma. Our cars shouldn’t make wildfires worse

This has everything to do with the intense corruption in California and its utilities “regulation,” and precious little to do with ecology. No California politician including Newsome has cleaned up the utilities “regulation” stink (Rather they clean up FROM it). Highest rates and very poor, unreliable service but there’s billions and billions of dollars being made — by Politicians regulators And utilities executives. Off the backs of working Californians

He can’t do that.
Only the Feds can regulate interstate commerce.
