California is moving closer to banning the sale of new cars only running on gasoline by the middle of next decade

The state’s Air Resources Board is expected to make the announcement this week, and comes as the Governor moves to clean up the state’s auto fleet.

It’s a major step in the car-loving state’s fight against climate change.

The proposed regulation will set strict deadlines for meeting that goal, forcing automakers to step up production of cleaner vehicles, starting in four years from now.

The state’s move doesn’t ban the sale of any used vehicles. And owners of old-fashioned gas guzzlers will still be able to drive California’s roadways.

But thanks to its extensive highway network, California has huge sway over the entire auto industry.
