Washington Tightens Fuel Economy Standards for Trucks
The Obama administration has raised fuel economy standards for trucks in the United States in a bid to cut greenhouse gas emissions and reduce dependence on fossil fuels between now and 2027.
The new measures follow earlier efforts to improve energy efficiency for cars, aircraft, power plants and air conditioners.
The Consumer Federation of America said the new efficiency standards will make it less expensive for trucks to deliver their cargo, making many goods cheaper for consumers.
Leaders of the American Trucking Associations said they were "cautiously optimistic" that the new rules will achieve their goals without unduly disrupting operations.
The ATA welcomed the time given to manufacturers and the industry to meet the new standards.
Float & Clear
That is my analogy of float. all the elements of a page like iron sheet which are attracted by a magnetic force that comes from the top left corner. Every time you add an element, it will be arranged as a line.
'Float' as it's literal meaning, floats the elements. One can float the element left, right or nofloat.
Syntax:
float: left | right | none | initial | inherit;
When there are any other float elements after the element, it tries to occupy the space around the float element.
Clear will prevent it effect
Syntax:
clear: none | left | right | both | initial | inherit;
If an element has more height than it's parent, then 'overflow' has to be added to the parent element to adapt its child elemnts.
Syntax:
overflow: auto;
