“The U.S. no longer has emission standards of any meaning,” said Margo T. Oge, who served as the E.P.A.’s top vehicle emissions regulator under three presidents and has since advised both automakers and environmental groups.
“Nothing. Zero,” she added. “Not many countries have zero.”
Transportation is the largest single source of greenhouse gases in the United States.

Sometimes people post links to NYT articles which show the Gift Article words in the preview image, but which aren't actually gift article links. This one was a true gift article.

I do use an ad blocker, but I don't know if that has any effect on how well true gift article links work.
(True NYT gift links have an unlocked_article_code in the URL.)

in reply to AI6YR Ben • • •@ai6yr Odd! I've never had a problem with true NYT gift links (based on seeing unlocked_article_code in the URL). Lots of posts labeled as though they are gift links actually aren't.
Can you read this one?

in reply to Radio Free Trumpistan • •The Tracking Token Disrespector provided a cleaned up link, which I also tried--and got the same result.

in reply to Radio Free Trumpistan • • •@claralistensprechen5th Depending on how the Tracking Token Disrespector "cleaned up" the link, it might have erased the part that makes it a gift link! That seems the likely explanation for why the links work for me (and others) and not for you.

in reply to Jeri Dansky • •You misunderstood. What I said was that I got the SAME result with both links.
Jeri Dansky
in reply to Radio Free Trumpistan • • •@claralistensprechen5th Sorry about that!
And now I really don't know what it is about our situations that makes the NYT require a login for you and not for me.
I see "Transferring data from browser-intake-datadoghq.com..." at the bottom of your screen capture. I don't know what that's about and if it's at all relevant.
