According to a post at Good Clean Tech, California is once again leading the way in local environmental efforts, instituting a new green performance label for every new car sold in the state.
The “environmental performance” rating sticker is voluntary for now but will become a requirement starting January 1, 2009. Each car’s greenhouse gas impact will be rated with a 1-10 scale, with the highest scores representing the least impact, so a ‘9′ will be greener than a ‘7′.”
