When Ralph Shapiro died earlier this month, we lost a great alumnus and dear friend. Along with his wife Shirley Shapiro, Ralph has been a longtime supporter and champion of the UCLA School of Law and the Emmett Institute on Climate Change & the Environment.

However, the infrastructure required to support these vehicles is immense.
