years, mexico's government has doubled up its demand for coal. while this means minors enquire, wheeler can count on steady work. it also means the threat of yet another accident will always remain lurking somewhere in the dark. manuel rap a low al jazeera while we la mexico. california is set to ban sales of new calls, powered by fossil fuels, that marks a major step in the u. s. states battle against climate change, the decision will be implemented in the middle of the next decade in it could pave the way for similar measures in other states. speedy up the transition to electric vehicles. reynolds us this report now from los angeles. in what may be a huge boost to the electric car industry, california, the largest state in the us will ban sales of traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. from 2035 will be the 1st jurisdiction in the world to
12:29 pm
require all new cars to be sold to be alternative fuel cars. and here's why it's significant. besides being a game changer in terms of our climate and our energy leadership, it's a game changer. and another respect that the car manufacturers themselves are celebrating and embraced in it, including toyota to day. not just ford and gm. california is often a leader in the us and more than a dozen states usually follow its auto emission standards that may help create uniformity. within the complex electric car market. automakers will have to gradually phase in alternative fuel vehicles in their new fleets. beginning with 35 percent of all new cars in 2026, but it won't necessarily be easy. electric cars are expensive and the network of charging stations will need to be vastly expanded. i think the 3 largest challenges
12:30 pm
for adoption are, 1st of all, affordability availability, as well as infrastructure. from the affordability standpoint, e v 's are typically more expensive and we definitely don't want to put low income buyers out of the market. electric vehicles will be required to get 240 kilometers on a single charge. some californians concerned about global warming are right behind the decision. i agree if anything's gonna reduce things like buyers and i know natural disasters, i think why not. the new rule was made by this states air resources board and is expected to get the required federal approval. a spokesman for a group representing the u. s. auto industry says it would be, quote, extremely challenging for the industry to adapt in order to meet these deadlines. rob reynolds al jazeera los angeles, ah.
