With each mile we drive using gasoline or diesel, we emit greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) that contribute to climate change. Transportation alone accounts for 36% of all GHG emissions in the County! To reduce emissions, Clark County residents and visitors can rely on more sustainable mobility options like electric vehicles and public transit to decrease the impact of necessary travel.
