END DIESEL NOW

The largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in California is the transportation sector.

Diesel-powered trucks and buses account for three percent of vehicles on the roads yet they produce 23 percent of the sector’s greenhouse gas emissions.

Our children are growing up breathing dirty air that has the potential to create a lifetime of health problems.

That’s why we’re calling to END DIESEL NOW.
