Bicycle advocates pushing California to promote more e-bikes

The U.S. state of California is making huge investments to boost electric cars, but electric bike advocates are asking if e-bikes can also be prioritized.

A recent study has shown that e-bike use can have a significant effect on reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

And now a coalition of climate and bicycle advocates are pushing for a state law that would put $10 million into the wider adoption of electric bikes.
