greenhouse gas emissions, more than the electric power sector. The transportation sector is also a substantial source of nitrogen oxides and particulates, both of which are dangerous to human health. Transportation is now the source of 28% of U.S. Before starting, here’s a little more background about the three cases: Texas v.
