The Chevy Camaro, one of America's iconic muscle cars, but if you live in California or Washington

State, three Camaro models, the SS, the Z111, the one LE, it'll be off limits to you starting

January 1st. The Camaro's are being banned because of what's in their brake pads. 10 years ago,

both California, Washington State enacted stringent laws to limit the amount of copper

that automakers are allowed to use in brake pads. Well, here's the problem. When ever drivers apply

their brakes, it kicks off a tiny amount of brake dust. That brake dust includes particles of

copper and other metals used in the manufacturer brake pads. The evil, toxic brake dust then gets

deposited on the road. The wind blows it all over the state and then all over the world. And

ultimately, this brake dust mixes with rain. It gets washed into the rivers. And here's the

worst aspect of it all. Copper is bad for fish. It messes with their sense of smell. It makes it

easier for other fish predators to kill a fish that have been exposed to brake dust. So no Chevy

Camaro's for you muscle car fans in California or Washington, at least until Chevy gets rid of

the copper brake dust. Bad for you, good for the fish. Do you believe this?
