Cars’ average carbon dioxide emissions have dropped by 25% since the early 2000s, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), but this gas only accounts for part of the total. While some VOCs are released in exhaust, others may arise from an unexpected source—e.g.,

The data shows a slight increase in overall emissions from the previous year, and a slight decline in emissions from transportation, which is the state’s main source of both GHGs and air pollutants. CARB has approved additional measures to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases from super pollutants that must also be reduced significantly.

The E10 fuels were blended together in four equal parts to create the final E10 fuel. The test fleet showed statistically significant effects for some pollutants, but not for others. The study used two fuels—an E10 and E15. The summer-grade E10 fuel was sourced from four different refineries that were selected by CARB.
