  On Thursday, the governors of eight states pledged to get 3.3m zero-emission vehicles on roadways by 2025 in an effort to curb greenhouse gas pollution. In the eight states includes California and New York
  
  To sign a memorandum of understanding, representatives from all eight states were to assemble in Sacramento. This would raise infrastructure and make other alternations to help increase market share for electric cars, hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids. The expectations are in 2015, there should be more than 200,000 zero emissions vehicles on the road.
  
  "This agreement is a major step forward to reducing the emissions that are causing our climate to change and unleashing the extreme weather that we are experiencing with increased frequency," New York Governor Andrew M Cuomo said in a statement.
  
  The other states such as Massachusetts, Maryland, Oregon, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Vermont are also involve in the agreement. All in all the eight states represent about 23 percent of the US auto market.
  
  Every state has already separately agreed to policies to entail a percentage of new vehicles sold to be zero emission by 2025. California's authorization alone of 15.4% calls for a total of 1.5m zero-emission vehicles to be on the state's roads by that time.
