Rebuilding The Gateway To America | WHAT THE TRUCK?!? x Talon

The ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Just a few short years ago they were ground zero for the supply chain crisis. Today, the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are seeing record import levels. Those will only grow as ports from Maine to Texas could go on strike again, leaving Los Angeles and Long Beach as two of few major ports in the country open for business.
Along with that, the ports as well as the drayage community are tasked with hitting some very real zero-emissions goals by 2030. Are we seeing an end to the freight recession in real time? Can the shipping community meet its environmental goals? Who are the players and what is the tech paving the way for this future? We had to jump a plane from Chattanooga, Tennessee, to LAX to see what the truck is up with the gateway to the USA: the Southern California ports.

I looked into leasing a fuel cell car. Even though the car makers gave you a $15,000 fuel voucher, the fact that the hydrogen stations are largely supplied from the Gulf Coast is a no-go. This mean a pipeline failure or a hurricane can cut off the supply. I'm in SoCal and there are some stations that are supplied by the local refineries, there aren't enough. I went BEV instead
