Interest in HEVs and BEVs is driven by a dramatic reduction in or elimination of tailpipe emissions, and the increased fuel economy of these vehicle types helps reduce the world’s dependence on oil. Therefore, it is not clear whether there would be a substantial reduction in emissions by switching to these new powertrain technologies.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank.

Cap-and-trade was first tried on a significant scale twenty years ago under the first Bush administration as a way to address the problem of airborne sulfur dioxide pollution–widely known as acid rain–from coal-burning power plants in the eastern United States. In May 2009, the Advisory Group released their draft final design recommendations.
