Summary

The U.S. is set to enact its most ambitious climate regulations to date through EPA rules changes on tailpipe emissions.

The New York Times reports on the Biden administration's push for EV adoption through EPA rules changes:

The Biden administration on Wednesday will propose the nation’s most ambitious climate regulations to date, two plans designed to ensure two-thirds of new passenger cars and a quarter of new heavy trucks sold in the United States are all-electric by 2032.

If the two rules are enacted as proposed, they would put the world’s largest economy on track to slash its planet-warming emissions at the pace that scientists say is required of all nations in order to avert the most devastating impacts of climate change.

Voting matters. Let's keep up this momentum in 2024 and ensure these rules are seen through to 2032.
