Excerpt

"The report concludes that the auto sector’s "current dominant strategy,” which involves replacing gasoline-powere d vehicles with EVs without decreasing car ownership and use, "is likely incompatible” with climate activists’ goal to keep the planet from warming by more than 1.5 degrees Celsius compared with preindustrial times. Instead, the report recommends government policies that promote walking, cycling and mass transit.

Governments, the report says, could reduce "financial subsidies for private vehicles,” such as on-street and free parking. They could also impose charges on pickup trucks and SUVs (including electric ones) and build more bike lanes. Urbanites who suspect the expansion of bike lanes in their cities is intended to force people to stop driving aren’t wrong.”

2 Hmmmmm.... "replacing gasoline-powered vehicles with EVs without decreasing car ownership and use...." I'm sure you can all see the fallacy here. Any real "car person" regards EVs as nothing but fancy toys for the rich. I wouldn't buy one -- even if I could afford it, or if it cost $50. They are, shall we say, underperformers in the kind of weather we get during Minnesota winters. And since our governor, Kim Jong Walz, is making a commitment to solar and wind to produce more and more of our electricity, it's more of a fuss to charge an EV and takes a lot longer even if we don't get brownouts or blackouts -- which, thankfully, we haven't had so far this winter. We HAVE had a couple power outages but they were due to other causes.
And what do you do when you have to replace their batteries?
