The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has introduced the new Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) Regulation, with a mission to expedite the transition to zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) across the state. This regulation affects vehicles with a gross weight rating (GWR) greater than 8,500 pounds which includes some commonly used pickup trucks such as Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra 2500, Ford F-250 Ram 2500 and other models of similar or greater weight. There are some vehicles that are exempt from this regulation such as historical vehicles, dedicated snow removal vehicles, two-engine vehicles, and heavy cranes.

The climate change fraud has discredited “science”. Researchers will say anything for a buck.

STAGNATION: 1973-1982 AND REAGAN INTRODUCED REAGNOMICS. THE SHTF IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN.

So it’s a good thing that it is a hoax.

So, the experts tell us that the way to stop the reduction of agricultural production is to reduce agricultural production.

Got it.

LOL. How about higher energy costs that also impact the production of fertilizers. The continuing war in Ukraine is also another factor.

And the Environazis in Europe are reducing the allowable amount of acreage that can be used for farming.

The strain that rising global temperatures could have on on the agriculture industry and inflation around the world will likely cause food prices to increase even more, according to new research.

Hmmmm, warming global temperatures = longer growing seasons.

And this is a bad thing for the food supply .... why?

[Gaffer]

More distraction, diversion and blaming to keep Americans from fully realizing the DISASTER that is Joe Biden.

[chopperk]

This event may be a prequel to famine. Thanks to the Marxist Dems the USA has 20 million more mouths to feed with lower food production world wide. Seems its only a matter of time before demand outstrips supply if not already there.

[EastTexasTraveler]

Bulls**t.

Inflate the currency to finance an orgy of mass murder, blame climate change.
