One of the most important events for EVs in BC is happening right now. Government policy for EVs will be guided for years by the final report of the Climate Leadership Plan. They've asked for our input.
You probably joined VEVA because you wanted to promote the adoption of EVs. Now is your chance. Here's what you can do:
1. Visit the
Climate Leadership page
2. Review VEVA's
earlier submission
3. Fill out the
online survey
4. Send additional input to
[email protected]
5.
Contact your MLA and let them know that EVs are key for hitting BC's climate change targets
6. Use your Twitter, Facebook and other social media accounts to tell your friends, family and the world to also do all of the above
At approximately 37%, transportation is the province’s largest source of emissions. EVs can be extremely helpful for meeting BC's emission targets. At the same time, EVs make economic sense because they are efficient, they improve air quality, and they have lifestyle benefits.
Does the government really want our input? Well, keep in mind that this is a government that learned something about the importance of public consultation from the GST issue not long ago. There is a will to act on climate change now and the government is listening.. The actions of all of us, right now, matter.
