used to move containers in and out of the ports operating the ports 24/7 will not cure the issue because all it does is pile up more containers that sit idle as they await a limited number of trucks to pick them up and then whoever wrote this writes in bold this is the central issue on October 16th 2020
The EPA reached a settlement agreement with California Air Resources Board to shut down semi-tractor rigs that were non-compliant with new California emission standards.
And here is the direct quote from the EPA, or I assume it is, it might be from somewhere else.
Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced settlements with three interstate trucking companies imposing $417,000 in penalties for violating the California Air Resources Board's federally enforceable truck and bus regulation, drayage truck regulation, and transport refrigeration unit regulation.
As trucks are one of the largest sources of air pollution in California, EPA will, you hear that?
Trucks are one of the largest sources of air pollution in California.
So therefore, we can't use half the trucks to pick up things from the containers.
We won't let them in.
My dear friends, How much are trucks picking up containers on California ports, how much are they contributing to the warming of the planet?
The answer is that it is so negligible as to be preposterous.
Lunatics run the EPA because environmentalists are bored, white, rich.
Empty souls looking for meaning in life to control others and save the planet.
I mentioned white because I rarely do because it normally doesn't matter to me.
But I really wanted to specify who was behind the wreckage caused by the environmentalists.
The left-wing rich.
That's who.
The bored rich are destroying life for the non-rich.
This is a great example.
This is a catastrophe at the ports.
This is why people can't get things, including food.
It's one of the reasons your food prices are so high.
