Car manufacturers have to adhere to the EPA regarding the product's gas emission before releasing it to the public. This year, EPA will still push through with their 2025 emission target as planned.

EPA confirmed last Friday that they will still push through with their target for greenhouse gas emission by 2025. According to EPA's administrator Gina McCathy, the organization aims to have 54.5 miles per gallon for light vehicles by 2025. They are requiring car manufacturers to double their corporate average fuel economy to around 54.5 miles per gallon in the range of 2022 to 2025.

Some automakers are saying that this goal is impossible to achieve because it will put a restrain the production costs of vehicles. There are other factors that may affect EPA's resolve in targeting their goal for 2025. With the shift of administrations from Obama to Donald Trump, there might be a chance for the emission-reduction efforts to be put on hold or dissolve completely. However, EPA will remain strong and will keep pushing with their goal by 2025.

This might be a hard hurdle to accomplish because of how Americans opt to buy their vehicles. In a research study from the University of Michigan Transportation Research, the US remained at an average of 25.1 miles per gallon emission for the past three years. The reason for this is that US residents prefer to buy SUVs and pickup vehicles, which usually emit more greenhouse gas than lighter vehicles due to their stature. Car manufacturers have only eight years to adhere to EPA's target goal. This prompts them to be more fuel efficient with their vehicles for the next eight years.

EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) is a US organization that aims to protect everyone who lives in America from health and environment risks caused by humans.  The agency's policy stems from their November proposal, which allows them to push through with their 2025 goals. Their regulations will not keep them safe in case Trump decides to undo everything Obama did during his last term.
