....and he wants to run for President in 2024.
Sounds like they just put a turbocharger on the used car market, which will increase the number of old cars with more emissions vs new cars that pollute less. Liberal logic strikes again.
This will only have the desired result if growth of non poluting power generation is timed with the phase out of petrol based travel.
Of course this means nuclear as well as the solar and wind efforts.
Also means electric rail needs to come into the picture. (And this is not possible withoug other states joining the program.
Right now, I would put this in the category of a pleasant dream. Sounds good though.
looks like typical clickbait bullshite from the Daily Mail:
“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.”
I want California Governor Gavin Newsom to ban liver.
I hate liver. It tastes terrible. And don’t give me that “cook it with onions” crap.
good...
they’re forfeiting their ability to dictate emissions standards on ice vehicles for the rest of the country...
Auto manufacturers knew this was coming so that’s why they are pivoting toward EVs.
I’ve been out of that wretched state for 21 years and will never move back. A visit every three years is about enough.
I assume this will extend to the ability to register and insure a new gasoline car in CA.
These Leftist state totalitarian authoritarian politicians are not too concerned about the exodus, as it is mostly going to consolidate their electorate to rabid Leftists with fewer moderates and conservatives.
They know those people going into other states will still vote their same errors, because they’ve bee brainwashed all of their lives, so it will work to turn red states blue/purple.
Its only a matter of time until gavin starts mandating/dictating that all gas stations need to convert to electric and he restricts the amount of gas that a station can sell or some such similar nonsense.
What happens when the climate from Washington and Oregon turn south? How is California going to stop it?
Let’s go San Andreas Fault!
How much did Musk donate to his campaign ?
How will California’s infrastructure support a population using EMVs?
Is California strengthening it’s power grid?
Are tens of thousands of new charging stations being built?
The real goal is to eliminate middle class people owning cars period.
Things are headed back to the 1920s when only the wealthy had cars.
Still don’t think these people aren’t at war with you?
“Thursday’s launch will require that 35 percent of new passenger vehicles sold in the state by 2026 produce zero emissions, then 68 percent by 2030 and ultimately 100 percent five years after”.
Well good, we will not have to wait long for this to be shown to be unenforceable.
No way Kali sells 35% of all new cars as EV’s NEXT YEAR!
And the potential ban on bringing in cars from other states is most likely illegal too.
Some Kali. counties are already prohibiting new gas station construction.
When this is actually announced it will lead to lawsuits in short order.
Folk are not going to be rendered unable to move freely without a fight.
I look forward to the eco-nuts losing this one ASAP.
<< The climate crisis is solvable if we focus on the big, bold steps needed to stem the tide of carbon pollution,’ Newsom said >>
Of course calling out China and holding them accountable for being by far the biggest polluter in the world isn’t one of those steps, which proves that none of them believe any of this climate bullshit.
newsom is such a namby pamby
set up roadblocks and start confiscating them
if you are gonna go commie go full commie
this will result in increased cost for used cars which will have a negative affect on the lower half on income earners and they exist in much higher numbers than the affluent, the EV buyers. This, of course, results in further division of the people of the nation and increased finger pointing, distrust and violence. And the people will begin reading the preamble of the US Constitution.
Australian banks announced this week they will cease making loans on gasoline or diesel vehicles. Is that next here??
I wonder how this would fare in the Federal courts.
