As the state battles climate change and Californians drive fewer gas-powered cars, tax revenue will drop substantially, according to a state analysis.

The state takes more action on climate change in rules and legislation as drought is replaced by flooding.

Now that electric cars are mainstream, higher-income Californians will no longer qualify for state subsidies, while lower-income buyers could get up to $12,000.

Environmentalists say the governor’s proposal to slash $6 billion in funding hurts the state more in the long run.
