The decision, to take effect by 2035, will very likely speed a wider transition to electric vehicles because many other states follow California’s standards.
Precisely. California is in fact well known in setting new standards that other states follow, especially regarding car emissions. Actually even Massachusetts was following California, they were just faster to sign it into law.
as it happens i was also wrong, california is the second for a different reason: washington plans to ban them by 2030 aspirationally, but definitely 2035 at the latest. so that’s actually three states at least doing this now
