Switching from gasoline and diesel engines to electric motors is one of the most effective ways to reduce global warming emissions and air pollution. In California, driving on electricity using the average plug-in vehicle can lower emissions to that of a hypothetical gasoline car that achieves 116 miles per gallon fuel economy.

Most household appliances, like furnaces and water heaters, are powered by fossil fuels and emit nitrogen oxides (NOx) —toxic and highly reactive gases that endanger human health and the environment. Zero-NOx appliance standards would benefit public health, cut greenhouse gas pollution, and create jobs.

LR100 is a cleaner fuel source for boilers than other fuel oil replacement options and will reduce air emissions of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter by 50% and sulfur dioxide emissions by nearly 99%. In May 2020, the program placed the first haul-all drop-off recycling bins at Menallen Elementary School in Menallen Township.

Both the United States and the European Union electricity generations have 25-30% coal (historically much higher, hence its title of King), natural gas 35%, nuclear 20-25% and renewables make up 15% on both markets. Yet, coal account for two-thirds of the carbon emissions of electricity generation in both regions. Current situation.

Cleaner cars, cleaner air Our Cleaner Cars, Cleaner Air Report showed that while pre-2004 cars make up fewer than 20% of the cars on the road, they are responsible for the majority of tailpipe pollution because they produce higher amounts of lung-damaging particulate pollution and contribute significantly more smog-forming nitrogen oxide emissions.

Now 55 years later, the same type of arguments are being recycled to attack Californias ACCII standards. Using only the past credits and 2026 plug-in hybrid sales would allow an automaker to meet the 2026 sales requirements with as little as 2 percent fully electric ZEV sales. Contrast Hondas lack of effort with that of Hyundai.
