California's New Fuel Standards Set to Increase Gas Prices
TL;DR Summary
California's Air Resources Board has approved changes to the low carbon fuel standard, aiming to reduce emissions and fund zero-emission vehicle infrastructure, but potentially raising gas prices. Critics argue the plan inadequately supports electric vehicles and lacks transparency on cost impacts. The program is part of California's broader goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2045, despite concerns about affordability and effectiveness.
