Canada’s Minister of Environment and Climate Change, Catherine McKenna, and the Chair of the California Air Resources Board, Mary Nichols, today signed a new cooperation agreement to advance cleaner vehicles and fuels. The transportation sector is the source of nearly a quarter of Canada’s carbon emissions and more than 40% of California’s.
The governors of Massachusetts, Connecticut, and RhodeIsland, and the mayor of the District of Columbia announced that theirs will be the first jurisdictions to launch a new multi-state program that the principals expect will invest some $300 million per year in cleaner transportation choices.
that commits their states to continued participation in a regional effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fuels for vehicles and other uses. Signing the Memorandum of Understanding were the Governors from Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, RhodeIsland and Vermont.
Making the transition to cleaner, lower polluting near-zero and zero-emission vehicles is a critical component to addressing California’s clean air and climate challenges. The transportation sector accounts for about 40 percent of the state’s greenhouse gas emissions. Institute of Gas Technology (1 mobile refueling station).
For the average driver, every tank of gas burned costs $18.42 In addition to California, the ZEV states are Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, RhodeIsland and Vermont. RhodeIsland: $407 million. in hidden health and climate costs. Maryland: $2.6 Connecticut: $1.4
Additionally, in coordination with the US Department of Transportation through the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, DOE announced its intent to release funding to address barriers to a cleaner, safer, more affordable, and more reliable Made in America EV charging network.

Earlier this week, New Jersey officials announced plans to ban the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035. The steps we take today to lower emissions will improve air quality and mitigate climate impacts for generations to come, all while increasing access to cleaner car choices,” said Governor Phil Murphy.
They are looking at cutting the nation’s greenhouse gas output by targeting, in separate ways, three major sources of emissions: electric utilities, transportation and industry. states are already actively participating in the design and implementation of three regional cap-and-trade programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
This legislation, passed by the Democrat-controlled Massachusetts Legislature, was partly based on the MA Decarbonization Roadmap , released last December, calling for a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by at least 85% by 2050. This roadmap included a summary of a memorandum of understanding (MOU).
However, the CEO of the nation’s largest EV company, whose personal and corporate mission is supposedly to ensure a transition to sustainable transport, is still backing a ticket that routinely lies about EVs and would subsidize polluting gas vehicles. But much more action was taken during his time in Minnesota than we’ve covered here.
