Take five minutes to celebrate this environmental activism and its accomplishments:
2024 GOLDMAN PRIZE WINNER
Andrea Vidaurre
Andrea Vidaurre's grassroots leadership persuaded the California Air Resources Board to adopt, in the spring of 2023, two historic transportation regulations that significantly limit trucking and rail emissions. The new regulations—the In-Use Locomotive Rule and the California Advanced Clean Fleets Rule—include the nation's first emission rule for trains and a path to 100% zero emissions for freight truck sales by 2036. The groundbreaking regulations—a product of Andrea's policy work and community organizing—will substantially improve air quality for millions of Californians while accelerating the country's transition to zero-emission vehicles.
