Canada’s Minister of Environment and Climate Change, Catherine McKenna, and the Chair of the California Air Resources Board, Mary Nichols, today signed a new cooperation agreement to advance cleaner vehicles and fuels. The transportation sector is the source of nearly a quarter of Canada’s carbon emissions and more than 40% of California’s.

With climate change awareness increasing, gas prices continuing to climb, EV charging stations expanding, and tons of new EV options hitting the market each year, it’s no surprise that electric vehicle purchases are skyrocketing. Electric vehicles are becoming more and more common on the roads across the country.

The findings suggest that in addition to carbon dioxide, there are other compounds in need of attention and regulation. When the temperature gets colder, they can actually go through the gas to particle conversion process, creating new particles and increasing the overall particle number concentration. —Mingyi Wang.
