If we really cared about clean air, we would be putting tariffs on imported goods from the 3rd world where they don't care about emissions. Or air travel, or trans oceanic container shops, or any number of other things. If we really cared about saving lives we would be eliminating plastic use as much as possible due to micro plastics.
A small number of cars modifying parts, swapping engines, etc is not causing a significant issue in air quality. Even all the diesel trucks having emissions deletes installed wasn't. But people don't want.to hear about the issues that WE CREATE on the other side of the world, they want to vilify someone they are doing something they don't like and the government to come in and abuse power that it was never actually given to stop it.
In the end, the EPA andany other govt agencies main drive now is to further their own headcount and agendas to push their headcounts higher.

What do you think “cleaned up” the air in LA and other places that were choking in smog in the 70s?
