On this morning’s 10am edition of Your Call’s One Planet Series, we’ll discuss electric vehicles (EVs), a critical clean technology for addressing climate change — but one that has yet to see mass adoption.

What progress is being made on EVs? What challenges remain? What can be done for people who don’t have a dedicated parking spot for charging access? How clean and sustainable is the battery supply chain and disposal process?

Joining me to discuss these questions and more will be:

• David Reichmuth, senior engineer in the Clean Vehicles program at the Union of Concerned Scientists. Dr. Reichmuth has testified at hearings before the US House of Representatives, the California State Legislature, and the California Air Resources Board, and he is an expert on California’s Zero Emission Vehicles regulation.
• Max Baumhefner, Senior Attorney with the Climate and Clean Energy Program at NRDC, based in San Francisco. He focuses on electrifying the transportation sector in a manner that also accelerates the transition to a smarter, more affordable electric grid powered by renewable resources.
