Gas Prices Rise Across States Amid Adjustments

Gasoline prices in Colorado have increased by 2.4 cents per gallon over the past week, averaging $3.04, which is lower than prices from a month and a year ago. Meanwhile, California's regulatory body has approved stricter emissions standards, potentially raising gas prices by up to 65 cents per gallon, despite the board's assurances that no surcharge will be added. In Texas, gas prices have seen a slight rise of 3.0 cents per gallon, averaging $2.59, but remain lower than a month and a year ago. In the Philippines, fuel prices are set to increase by P1.50 for gasoline and P2.10 for diesel due to production cuts and currency depreciation. Overall, the national average for gasoline in the U.S. has decreased by 2.6 cents to $3.03, marking a continuing trend of lower prices across many states. These fluctuations reflect a combination of local and global economic factors impacting fuel supplies and pricing.
