Last week, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) announced a new rule that bans new, gas-powered cars in the state, starting with 2035 models.

In California, Washington and Oregon, the states’ attorneys general argued that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) should reject a pipeline project as it does not serve the region’s transition to clean energy.
