Getting more zero- and low-emission vehicles on the road in Pennsylvania helps reduce harmful air pollutants, including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds. It also helps lower the level of carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases heating up the climate, in the air.

In addition to the 22 percent passenger and light duty vehicle requirement, the proposed regulation will also add a greenhouse gas fleet average requirement for Pennsylvania sales. Transportation generates 47 percent of nitrogen oxide and 21 percent of carbon dioxide emissions in Pennsylvania.

Critically, and as we’ll discuss in greater depth shortly, hydrogen combustion (as opposed to its use in fuel cells) also leads to greater emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), a toxic group of pollutants regulated under the Clean Air Act. It is also a precursor to other pollutants, including ozone (a key component of smog).

million in Alternative Fuel Incentive Grants (AFIGs) to 18 cleaner fuel transportation projects statewide that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other air pollutants. Transportation generates 47 percent of nitrogen oxide emissions in Pennsylvania, contributing to the formation of ground-level ozone.

It is mainly methane, which is 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide in trapping heat for the first 20 years after it is released. Nitrous oxide has been called the “ forgotten greenhouse gas ” because while it is a powerful contributor to climate change, it generates far fewer headlines than carbon dioxide.

This latest report looks at mitigation — or what the world can do to stop pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. or 2 degrees without a radical reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and electrifying many of the things that currently run on fossil fuels. Capturing carbon is a must. The IPCC said 1.5
