9:00 am – 10:00 am – WEBINAR Via Zoom
California has been a global pioneer on electric vehicles, and that leadership extends to zero-emission trucks. Join us for a webinar discussing our new report, which tells the story of the California Air Resources Board’s first-of-its-kind Advanced Clean Trucks regulation. Adopted in 2020, this landmark regulation required truckmakers to begin selling zero-emission trucks starting in 2024, with increasing percentages through 2035.
The webinar will feature a conversation with key stakeholders involved in the development of the regulation:
- Katherine Garcia, Director of the Clean Transportation for All Campaign, Sierra Club
- Jimmy O’Dea, Acting Deputy Director, Caltrans (former Union of Concerned Scientists)
- Michael Geller, Deputy Director, Manufacturers of Emission Controls Association
- Chloé F. Smith, Research Fellow, UC Berkeley Law’s Center for Law, Energy, and the Environment (CLEE)
- Ethan Elkind (Moderator), Director of the Climate Program, CLEE
