VANCOUVER — British Columbia has become the 14th jurisdiction to sign on to the International Zero-Emission Vehicle Alliance.
Environment Minister Mary Polak made the announcement today (Thursday) at the 2015 UN climate conference in Paris.
Members will strive to make all new passenger vehicles zero-emission no later than 2050.
The move could reduce carbon dioxide emissions by over a billion tons each year lowering global vehicle emissions by roughly 40 per cent.
