Just a hunch but I'm thinking higher gas prices will create a demand for fuel efficient cars
They genuinely make policy based on whatever is going to "own the libs"
The US might be a kakistocracy, or a idiocracy. Maybe a pedocracy. Probably a bad mix of the worst though.
That might (probably won't but I can be hopeful) lead to less SUVs because the manufacturer can reasonably hit the milage requirements of cars.
Cuz nothing says, "lower gas prices" than increased fuel consumption!
Won't affect prices for a few years. That way they can blame it on democrats later on.
so us manufacturers will increasingly make vehicles unsellable on the world market. gotcha.
Then they’ll block importing the actually decent (electric) vehicles, forever stuck with Tesla
Yup. Said this in quite a few threads but you’re going to see a vastly different car landscape here from the rest of the world in 5-10 years. Prices will go up and quality here will go down as we turn into the dumping and cost recovery for manufacturers. You won’t see many more innovations in engine technology as they lock in and just build cheaper variants, while taking that money to compete on the world stage against China.
Lemme guess, "BrEAThinG is wOKe!!"?
burn on big planet burn on
Let's make destroying lives profitable again?
Somewhere Jeremy Clarkson is smiling
Not sure about that, his farm is fucked from the climate change he ignored for decades.
And to give credit where its due he's reversed his position on it quite drastically, isnt 100% but he has admitted he was wrong.
Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
