Australia has to reach an EV market share for new cars of at least 50% in the next decade to achieve its 2035 emissions target, but without tougher measures that looks unlikely

    Not that it really matters for climate change reasons, as to have any success there we’d have to move away from Cars as per the IPCC and climate scientists

    https://mass.streetsblog.org/2022/04/22/international-climate-report-demands-systemic-changes-to-transportation-and-urban-planning/

    but also makes clear that simply replacing gasoline with batteries won’t be enough: cities must also dramatically curtail the use of automobiles and avoid “locking in” future emissions with more car-dependent infrastructure.

    And a Climate Scientist

    https://phys.org/news/2022-11-expert-comment-future-electric-fast.html

    “Only by curbing all motorized transport, particularly private cars, as quickly as possibly can we tackle the climate and air pollution crises”


    We’re already building GWs of new coal to make ecars

    https://mastodon.social/@Snoro/110868169284217016


    With only a couple weeks of diesel/petrol reserves you’d think hawkish conservative dipshits would be pushing ecars constantly as a national security solution. We have endless bast solar and wind reserves

    Don’t get me wrong, everytime some ass cunt in an ICE car or ute comes past as I cycle, I curse the stench and pollution, so, at least with ecars I don’t get to have that shitty “experience”

Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we’ll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.
