It’s an Unpleasant Déjà Vu for Clean Transportation Advocates

What to Expect from the Second Trump Administration on Clean Transportation

As we brace ourselves for another term under a Trump administration, it’s crucial to anticipate the impact on clean transportation efforts. The previous administration, led by Donald Trump, was not particularly friendly towards initiatives aimed at reducing emissions and promoting electric vehicles. However, with the upcoming second term, experts are preparing for potential challenges and opportunities in the realm of clean transportation.

During the first Trump administration, significant rollbacks were made on vehicle emissions and fuel economy requirements, raising concerns among environmental advocates and industry stakeholders alike. The upcoming term is expected to continue down a similar path, with potential aggressive efforts to undermine progress in clean transportation.

Challenges Ahead

One of the key areas of concern is the potential restriction of California’s authority to set global warming pollution standards for vehicles. California has long been a pioneer in driving clean vehicle technologies and regulations, setting a benchmark for other states and countries to follow. Any limitations imposed on California’s standards could have far-reaching implications for the future of clean transportation.

Additionally, threats to federal support for public transit and the dismantling of agencies like the EPA are on the horizon. Efforts to undermine climate-focused programs and appoint political ideologues to lead agencies may hinder the progress made in transitioning towards a cleaner transportation system.

A Way Forward

Despite the challenges ahead, there are opportunities to continue the momentum towards a zero-emission transportation future. State leadership will play a crucial role in driving progress, compelling manufacturers to produce clean vehicle options and supporting federal investments in infrastructure. States can also prioritize a comprehensive set of transportation options, including transit, walking, and biking, to reduce emissions and improve air quality.

What Can We Do?

While the outlook for federal support for clean transportation may seem bleak, organizations like the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) are gearing up to defend existing policies and investments. Advocacy efforts will focus on holding automakers accountable, supporting state initiatives, and promoting science-based policies across agencies.

It’s essential for advocates and supporters to remain vigilant and speak up about climate and clean transportation standards. By standing together and advocating for a sustainable future, we can work towards a cleaner, healthier transportation system for all.
