Under the Clean Air Act, California has the unique ability to set its own standards for tailpipe emissions from new vehicles, including greenhouse gases. There are some aggressive milestone requirements: 35% of new vehicles must be electric by 2026 and 68% in 2030. Other states can then piggyback on California’s efforts.
