12 States to ban diesel vehicles

[gsganzer]

I saw a news article of the push to ban all diesel vehicles, mainly by 2035. Currently, there are 12 states marching down this path. It's the usual states, that are also pushing for 100% electric, by tying their laws to align with laws/rules that are passed in California.

One of the things that really surprises me, is states that tie their rules and mandates that come from California. Without getting political, I'd be more than a little miffed as a voter in say Massachusetts, who's legislature chooses to abandon their own sovereignty and instead abide by the rules passed by voters in another state.

I haven't dug through all the details, but I can't help but wonder what this would do to costs for shipping and transport. Surely, you'd think they'd carve out an exception for heavy transport and trucking. What about off-road equipment for construction and agriculture?

We'll do it the modern way. All of our food will be grown in other countries and deliveries will be done using magic.

I'll bet the ban does not last long, once the out-of-touch lawmakers find empty shelves and other shortages.

You should post the link.

There's some emission proposals out there for 2035 and 2045, (IIRC) but also some clickbait speculation trying to stir things up.

I'll try to find it. It would have been on MSN or Yahoo home pages.

Sounds good. They'll quickly starve to death and then we can move in and straighten things out.

The governors of 12 states (so far) are asking President Biden to ramp up plans to ban the sale of new gas-powered and diesel-powered vehicles by no later than 2035. And they want new diesel sales to be banned by no later than 2045.

States are the usual suspects, including mine.

The states are California, New York, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maine, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington State, and Rhode Island

No they will cross the state line and bring their crap ideas with them.
Secure the states borders.
