The Biden administration is reportedly planning to implement some of the strictest auto pollution limits in the world, with the goal of having all-electric cars make up 67% of new passenger vehicles sold in the US by 2032. This would be a significant increase from the 5.8% of all-electric vehicles sold in the country last year and would surpass President Biden’s previous target of having all-electric cars account for 50% of sales by 2030. The proposed regulations would be the most aggressive climate regulation implemented by the federal government and would position the US as a leader in global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from cars, a major contributor to climate change. The European Union has already enacted vehicle emissions standards that are expected to phase out the sale of new gasoline-powered vehicles by 2035, while Canada and Britain have proposed similar standards.
