Making the clean air car Federal income tax credit harder to get will discourage many people from buying a electric car. I go on 2 EV car forums and that is a big incentive for many people.

Stricter standards on smog-forming emissions from trucks, vans, and buses starting in 2027. I'm good with that.

I hope you're good with "living" on a stricter diet, as most of the nation's food is grown and then delivered by diesel powered farm equipment and trucks. Eliminate or severely restrict their operation, and see how you like a life without food........

Cars are so much cleaner now than they were a decade ago or more smog is virtually gone in the Los angeles area yet the Calif. Air Recorses board has to keep on increasing regulations in order to justify their existence.

Great improvement yes but I still see smog when I go to LA or also here in Phoenix as well, imagine what a game changer having only EV's would do to our air quality, all good.

Decrease in population would decrease emissions a great deal. WY too many people on this planet.

Keep your hat on don't get overly dramatic, I owned three semi-trucks and know exactly how dirty they burn. As the population and technology increase so must the standards. After all the crying and screaming everyone will adapt and life will go on as usual. Not to worry I will not need to adjust my diet and the trucks will keep on rolling.

What made the whole pandemic thing fake to me was the fact that the trucks just kept on rolling. How else could it go on.
