Equity must be central to EV infrastructure planning
Summary
GreenLatinos calls for national leaders to prioritize equity in the planning and public investment of electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure. The organization argues that expanding access for underserved communities, specifically Latino/a/x and other communities of color, is essential to ending reliance on greenhouse gas emission vehicles and improving public health in areas most affected by emissions.
Key insights
- Public investment in electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure must prioritize equity to address the specific challenges and inequitable access experienced by Latino/a/x and environmental justice communities.
- Expanding EV infrastructure is necessary to reduce dependence on vehicles that emit greenhouse gases (GHG), which would particularly benefit communities of color who are most impacted by emissions.
