California Implements Strict Regulations on Diesel Trucks and Train Engines.
TL;DR Summary
California has approved new rules to phase out the sale of new diesel big rigs and buses by 2036, as part of its efforts to combat climate change and reduce pollution from heavy trucks used to transport goods through ports. The rule would require companies to disclose their use of these trucks by 2024. The state has previously approved ambitious emissions standards, including requiring all new cars, pickup trucks, and SUVs to be electric or hydrogen by 2035. The American Trucking Associations called the rule "unrealistic," while environmental groups praised the move.
