BACKGROUND:

        
        
        
        
          The goods-movement industry is crucially important to the economies 
          of the three West Coast states, but it is also a major source of air 
          pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to supporting 
          their own states’ air quality and climate goals, nine electric 
          utilities and two agencies representing 27 municipal electric 
          utilities are coming together like never before to tackle air 
          pollution and climate change along the western seaboard.
