California FBOs Told To Stop Selling 100LL, Switch To G100UL [This is the end of leaded fuel for small propeller planes in California]
https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/california-fbos-ordered-to-stop-selling-100ll-switch-to-g100ul/Leaded fuel has a long history of causing brain damage to kids exposed to the fumes, and it demonstrably does for kids living near airports as a result of propeller planes burning leaded fuel. The recent development of an unleaded fuel which can work in all the existing aircraft fleet has resulted in a small number of locations needing the sale of leaded fuel, and this will represent a full state-wide end to the use of leaded fuel.
I expect to see improvements in childrens' intelligence and reductions in crime as over the coming decades as a result.
