Coltura and the Yes Clean Cars coalition are gearing up to pass the Clean Cars 2040 Act in 2019. The 2018 bill did not advance in significant part because of oil industry obstruction, and we are organizing to ensure it does not meet the same fate in 2019.

The future of gasoline is headed for a showdown vote in Sacramento on April 16 in the Assembly Transportation Committee.   The vote concerns AB 1745, a bill which provides that model year 2040 and later new vehicles sold in California must be zero emissions vehicles.   

On January 3, California Assemblyman Phil Ting introduced AB 1745, the “Clean Cars 2040” Act. (Click here for the AB 1745 Fact Sheet, and here for Coltura’s op ed supporting the bill.)

Coltura is leading campaigns in Washington and California to phase out the sales of new gas cars by 2030. What does this mean? Beginning with the 2030 model year, only passenger vehicles that don’t run on gasoline or diesel can be registered. Existing gas cars will be grandfathered in.

Coltura is excited to bring to Seattle the first-ever No Gasoline concert - a landmark cultural event where all musicians and their gear will travel to and from the event without using gasoline. 

We are committed to using public art to drive environmental activism. This Friday, June 2 we will unveil our newest piece of statement art, "The Gas Trap," a 25-foot-high inflatable, kinetic sculpture stage and live performance piece that calls attention to the harm-and death-caused by our individual and collective use of gasoline.
