Currently, 13 states along with Washington D.C. have adopted clean car standards to follow California’s suit in cutting auto emissions. Virginia is set to discuss a new house bill as urged by public health advocates. It would require automakers to provide larger output of electric vehicles with zero emissions and cars that steadily decrease emissions.

Although auto dealers can see the pros to this legislation, they are requesting more time to plan and research while also taking into consideration other factors such as incentives and rebates for purchasers.

By encouraging purchases of cleaner, fuel efficient vehicles, the state forecasts greenhouse emissions will be reduced “by almost 3 million metric tons in 2040 and about 3.4 million metric tons in 2050”. Passing this bill will ensure carbon pollution is reduced while also improving human health affected by exhaust pollutants.
