    • Does anyone think that they won't charge their cars? The same people were told not to fill their pools, wash their car and water their lawns...but they did.utopian
    • Say bye to your owned car. Use public transport. Walk. Ride a bicycle. Do a life near where you work... Etc, etc...OBBTKN
    • California has multiple ecosystems, 1000miles across and produces the most food in the country. These blanket laws are so naive and out of touch.BabySnakes

      Business as usual won't be possible anymore
