Why is this important to you?  First, transportation is a big player in the CO 2 game.  Their push into renewables and alternative fuels is material to our Paris accord goals.  Second, you can be a smart shopper and support companies who embrace carbon improvements.  Finally, as we drive more EV's and hybrids, much of this advance technology that is helping fleets get clean will improve our vehicle performance as well.  We can piggy back, very quickly, their success.
