The European Union will ban new sales of fossil fuel cars from 2035, after MEPs approved a new law Tuesday, as Brussels also draws up plans to slash carbon emissions from trucks and buses.
European Union member states have already approved the legislation on cars and vans and they will now formally nod it into law, but much debate lies ahead on proposed measures against larger freight and passenger vehicles.
Supporters of the car bill -- passed in the European Parliament in Strasbourg -- argue it gives European automakers a clear timeframe to switch production to electric vehicles and will spur investment to counter competition from China and the United States.

In Russia, in 2035 (and beyond), people will have the FREEDOM to choose an EV, or a fossil fuel car.

Why don’t they just tell everyone to get a horse and buggy? Might be time to invest in buggy whip stock! Are tulips the next big thing also?
To: Red Badger
You know, you are right. They won't be fleeing in their gasoline powered cars. They will be walking.

More ripples from the stolen 20 election. It is more obvious every day that it was a global catastrophe. The EU fascists would not be doing this because we would not have half of the states doing this.
To: RomanSoldier19
They’re literally trying to ban private vehicles.

Apparently not in this life. More CO2 in the atmosphere is beneficial to life on earth.
