The Europeans, the Chinese, and India will outpace the USA in the next phases of new energy technology development. Non-binding is not about not doing. It is about the flexibility to time, invest, and deploy in economically viable ways. As a result of this decision, the USA falls behind in technologies, badly damages its global leadership, and looks like the great ignoramus-society on the face of the earth.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
