Tell Biden, EPA & DOT to finalize strong vehicle standards while
you still have time.

Emissions from heavy-duty vehicles play a
significant role in dangerous air quality levels and are largely
responsible for the negative consequences to public health.

One of our advocates from New Jersey recently attended an
NRDC training with me to learn about the threats posed by vehicle
pollution and how she could get involved. She then spoke at a
public hearing about how heavy trucks not only create greenhouse
gas pollution — which the EPA trucks rule seeks to reduce — but
also about the long-term public health challenges from
particulate matter and ozone levels being high in her community
overburdened by pollution.

She urged EPA to finalize strong vehicle standards that
would incentivize manufacturers to deploy increasing levels of
clean truck technologies like electric vehicles, which are zero
emissions, so they don't emit carbon pollution or smog forming
pollution like particulate matter.

You can still get involved too! Send a message to President
Biden, EPA, and DOT to finalize strong vehicle standards for
cleaner air. ( [link removed] )

With President Biden's EPA proposing new standards for cars
and big trucks and buses, and DOT not far behind in proposing new
vehicle standards, we must encourage EPA and DOT to finalize the
strongest possible vehicle standards that will reduce pollution
and help ensure the transition toward zero-emission electric
vehicles.

Tell Biden, EPA, and DOT to finalize the strongest possible
clean vehicle standards before it's too late! ( [link removed] )

New Standards Must Deliver Cleaner Vehicles

President Biden's EPA and DOT are proposing new clean vehicle
standards that could fight climate change and protect public
health. Urge them to finalize the strongest possible standards
NOW.

Dear NRDC Activist,

The open road. A healthy breeze through the window. Driving a
cleaner, zero-emission vehicle. This image is within reach.

Transportation is the largest source of
climate pollution in the U.S. and is also a major source of other
harmful pollutants that significantly impact public health,
causing deadly diseases such as asthma, heart problems, and
cancer.

President Biden's Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing new standards for cars and
big trucks and buses. And the Department of Transportation (DOT)
will be proposing new vehicle standards soon. Therefore, we have
an important opportunity to encourage EPA and DOT to finalize
strong standards that will reduce pollution and help ensure the
transition toward zero-emission electric vehicles.

Take action and send a message to urge
President Biden, EPA, and DOT to finalize the strongest possible
vehicle standards. ( [link removed] )

Strong clean vehicle standards would do
the following:

* Cars — A strong EPA standard for cars,
SUVs, pickup trucks, and cargo vans should be finalized by the
end of the year and must lead to significant reductions in carbon
emissions by being at least as strong as the most stringent
alternative in the agency's proposal.
* Big Trucks and Buses — A strong EPA standard for big, dirty
diesel trucks and buses must be finalized by the end of the year,
must put us on a trajectory to zero emissions by 2035, and must
be significantly stronger than the most stringent alternative in
the agency’s proposal.

Cleaner vehicles are a winner all around.
They deliver savings on fuel, support good domestic job creation,
clean up air in our communities, and protect our climate.

Tell our government agencies to finalize
strong vehicle standards for cleaner air. ( [link removed] )

These proposed standards build on the
support for clean vehicles in the Inflation Reduction Act signed
into law by President Biden last year, which has been followed by
the announcement of more than $50 billion in electric vehicle
related manufacturing investments in the U.S. With overwhelming
support from consumers, Congress, and states like California that
already have life-saving vehicle standards, the auto industry is
steering toward a zero emissions future.

If strong standards are finalized, the
Biden administration can ensure that the transition to clean,
electric vehicles happens as promised, and that the U.S. can
compete with Europe and China in the technology race.

For too long, auto makers have delayed
progress, and we cannot afford unfulfilled promises now. We need
to push the administration to finalize the strongest rules
possible to ensure clean vehicles of the future get built and hit
the road — so we all can benefit.

Urge Biden, EPA, and DOT to finalize the strongest possible clean
vehicle standards NOW! ( [link removed] )
