My overriding concern in relation to Redesigning Ontario’s Drive Clean Motor Vehicle Emission Testing Program is that, as the recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change indicates, the need to accelerate our move away from fossil fuels on a timeline that keeps global warming under 1.5°C is critical to avoid escalating catastrophes and potentially irreversible consequences, including threats to life and civilization itself.
The policies made now will have an immense impact on our ability to shift away from fossil fuels and keep emissions down. Ontario’s transportation sector is responsible for much of the ongoing and rising emissions in the province and negatively offsets the strides we’ve made toward a clean electricity mix. Emissions standards must steadily increase for all vehicles and the uptake in electric vehicles must be greatly accelerated. I urge you to make the decisions that will protect us and our children and bring emissions down as quickly as possible.
