Who’s got the Agenda 21 ping list?
The SUV in Berlin just up and decided to kill someone??
Who is the “International Energy Agency”? I have serious questions about the accuracy of their statement that SUVs, alone, generate more CO2 than heavy industry, OTR trucks, or airlines. I suspect that they have defined those categories overly narrowly (or outright falsely), and “SUV” as widely as possible.
Also, a 3yo would be just as badly injured by being struck by a SMART car as by an SUV.
Right .....and who wants to sit uncramped in a big luxurious conveyance.
Personally I’d like to cram myself in a mini or a (ahem) ‘smart’ car(sarc)
I for one can not get in or out of low modern cars without much pain. I bought a Ram in 2014 for just that reason.
Big picture, SUVs pollute less than electric vehicles. Also more likely to keep the occupants safe.
I think the writer is jealous.
I think it would be better if we banned your computer.
Outlaw Liberals.
The attack on petroleum, Coal, all energy production and refusal to fix our schools and roads is a plan to socialize transportation and get rid of individual travel. They did not make their mandate for 2021 and agenda 21 and now are after 2030. If they were really against CO2 they would be protesting China and India.
The left has one goal with everything they do. Control.
They want to control every human on the planet.
This woman doesn’t know what she’s talking about. The fastest growing segment in the auto industry is not SUV’s.
It is CUV’s. Those vehicles when you boil it down are simply lifted station wagons whose bodies are modified from the traditional wagon look to the SUV look.
Most CUV’s are powered by tiny turbo 4 cylinder engines. Larger size CUV’s are powered by V6’s.
True SUV (truck frame, V8 power) sales such as the Cadillac Escalade, are dwarfed by CUV sales. Hell, pick-up sales are less than CUV sales.
You don't "need" an incandescent light bulb.
You don't "need" a large soda.
You don't "need" a toilet that flushes with a couple gallons of water.
You don't "need" a plastic straw.
You don't "need" a standard capacity magazine.
You don't "need" an AR/AK.
You don't "need" a choice in healthcare.
You don't "need" a border.
You don't "need" a duly elected President.
In short, relax folks, our "betters" will determine what we need or not. Forward, for the party! ... oops, er, sorry. Got carried away, the rally isn't until next week when we're going to lynch a couple of bakers who refused to make cakes...
Sadly, not really satire. That's how the leftists think. That's the "utopia" they want.
I prefer to outlaw congresses. They’re the ones who foist insanities upon us.
NO, our masters need them!
They created SUVs in the first place through CAFE standards.
African child slave labor is paying for rechargeable lithium batteries.
No, “we” should legalize Technicals.
Hey asshat, how about we ban your bird-o-matic windmills? Weren’t you enviro-wackos the people who insisted we switch from paper bags to plastic to “save trees”? I could go on, but let me help you out: YES!
Rather than ban SUV’s, we should eliminate Adele’s . People such as her are simply not required and are tremendous burden on American society.
“Now some environmental nonprofits argue that automakers shouldn’t be making the vehicles at all, and some politicians are beginning to argue that they should be banned—if not from everywhere, then at least from city streets. In September, when a 3-year-old, his grandmother, and two men in their twenties were killed by an SUV in Berlin (coincidentally, on the same day that the German newspaper Handelsblatt ran a feature article about the growth in SUVs with the headline “SUV insanity“),”
You can’t compare the needs of a Euroweenie in Berlin and SUVs in America.
Here we need them to haul boats, travel trailers, firewood trailers, stock trailers, and just hauling a month’s worth of groceries back home.
Go ahead and ban them for liberal pukes in the cites, they deserve to ride the subway and sit in the filth of the bum that sat there an hour ago.
No, No, ... We should outlaw power plants.
Oh, we are already doing that, What idiots are we to accept the premise.
