Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday issued an executive order requiring the sale of all new passenger vehicles to be zero-emission by 2035, a move the governor says would achieve a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and move the state further away from relying on climate change-causing fossil fuels.

“This is the most impactful step our state can take to fight climate change,” Newsom said. “For too many decades, we have allowed cars to pollute the air that our children and families breathe. You deserve to have a car that doesn’t give your kids asthma. Our cars shouldn’t make wildfires worse – and create more days filled with smoky air. Cars shouldn’t melt glaciers or raise sea levels threatening our cherished beaches and coastlines.”

Gavin Newsom
@GavinNewsom
NEW: We’re facing a climate crisis.

We need bold action.

CA is phasing out the internal combustion engine.
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.

Not only will your homes go without power at times, so will your car so you can’t leave!

Someone bookmark this.

It’s going to be funny watching the CA legislature habitually move this date back when it becomes clear it isn’t going to happen.

Well, according to AOC and many other liberals, we don't have until 2035. In less than 12 years, it's all too late.
So, it'll all be over by then anyway, so what does it matter?

I guess this is a perfect example of symbolism over substance.

I'm guessing no one has studied how this is going to further strain their failing power grid.

Yes! Let's transition over to electric only cars! Because California isn't already having enough issues meeting the demands on their electric grid they hampered with more of this restrictive Leftist feel good bullshite.

AOC told me last year we only had 12 years to save the planet. So Newsom’s EO will kick in after we’re all toast. He might as well ball that EO up and throw it away.
