Diesel emissions standards regulate the amount of pollutants that diesel engines can emit to reduce air pollution. Proponents argue that stricter standards improve air quality and public health by reducing harmful emissions. Opponents argue that it increases costs for manufacturers and consumers and could reduce the availability of diesel vehicles.

No, because diesel engines are already heavily regulated, emissions equipment has a dramatic negative effect on reliability, and emissions equipment dramatically reduces fuel efficiency. Further restricting diesel emissions may hurt fuel economy enough that overall emissions are increased.
@9VXZ89W3mos3MO
No, the government should keep their noses out of the people's vehicles. The EPA should be disbanded.
@9X39MQ83mos3MO
No, however there should be more of an incentive to encourage those who are currently using more wasteful vehicles to switch to more enviormentally friendly alternitives.
@9ZGSRWK3mos3MO
The government shouldn't restrict certain diesel engines, but there should be a standard baseline for the harsh emissions.
@9WZ448Z3mos3MO
yes but i understand the opponents argument and maybe we should see if we could find a way to reduce cost
@9S2PDWW6mos6MO
The federal government cannot and should not implement On emission producing vehicles. It is mostly because these vehicles are the most easily accessible and most reliable for people who cannot afford other means of more energy, efficient transportation, or not wish to use the public transportation system. The federal government should find a way to combat the emissions from diesel vehicles, but they should not ban them out right, they could also reduce the presence of these vehicles in cities by imposing attacks upon vehicles in cities, but not upon vehicles in the suburbs or the country
@9RMB9T66mos6MO
while the process of mining and refining diesel is not the best for the environment, in the long run, diesel fuel burns cleaner and gasoline, and is better for the environment than mining oil from our soil

Yes, but only under cooperative effort with automakers and at in stages with technical advancement. There is such a thing as diminishing returns with respect to economic efforts.
