A Catalyst for Positive Change

COVID-19 has caused many difficulties in our world.

However, it could be the catalyst for positive change in America's transportation system. Accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) makes sense because EVs give us many beneficial tools to BUILD BACK BETTER.

This excerpt from an article published by the World Resources Institute really says it all: "EVs can help create a more environmentally and financially sustainable post-COVID-19 world. … Despite the destructive and painful nature of the pandemic, it also offers a once-in-a-century opportunity to pause business-as-usual vehicle production and shift towards a clean, economical and electric future."

Norway: A World Icon in Electric Vehicle Adoption

FUN FACT: 60% of vehicles sold in Norway last month were electric. The Scandinavian country has become a world icon in the race to adopt electric vehicles (EVs). This "electric boom" is fueled by a deep focus on broadening charging infrastructure and a variety of incentives and benefits for EV owners, including substantial cuts to parking, toll road and ferry charges. By 2026, Norway aims for all new vehicles sold in the country to be electric. Norway's got the right idea. It's time for the U.S. to stop spinning its wheels—we have to start increasing incentives for drivers and investments in EV charger infrastructure. Otherwise, we'll be left in the dust.
