California to approve 2035 ban on gas-powered car sales
Summary by Ground News
California is expected on Thursday to approve a ban on the sale of new gas-powered cars that would begin in 2035. Gas powered cars are a major source of both climate-warming emissions and other air pollutants. The measure has been touted as an attempt to both tackle climate change and improve public health. The decision, to take effect by 2035, will very likely speed a wider transition to electric vehicles. At least 12 other states are already in line to adopt California's zero-emissions vehicle mandate. The new rule is also expected to influence new policies in Washington and around the world to promote electric vehicles and cut auto pollution.
