    Great info as always, It’s deffo intresting times, I saw some vids a while ago about running cars on water and creating hydrogen via electrolysis and putting it directly into the combustion chamber, but i think that tech will never be pushed or allowed to become mainstream. Because they need to make money from it all..

    I do believe even if the cost of bev’s come down and ranges get better and fossil fuels end, They will need to find the cash somewhere. As they going to lose alot of revenue from ice cars and the tax on fuel.. or other energy creation and use not deemed green. They’ll probally have a it a congestion charge / pay per mile and price the poor off the roads.

    Plus the same few will profit hugely from the uptake of certain technologys over others as always and electric technology was surpressed for years before it became the new gold rush, The oil could well be running out?  Solar farms are popping up in fields near me at an alarming rates and everything comes at a cost even generating electric, That a lot don’t see or count or care about. Nothing is done imo to benefit the ppl only to charge us for it and keep us in debt and thus enslaved to pay it back.

    After all the UN say’s the people must pay for the demise of the car.

    At first though they dangle the carrot and get you hooked. Then it just get higher and higher and it won’t be worth owning a car or they won’t even allow it. In london they removing the exemption for resident from the congestion charge from 1st of aug to discourage them from owning cars. which is what i don’t agree with. Which they extending to nc. and sc. roads soon. Then it will be changed and changed until you cannot own a car at all any where in london.

    In paris the scheme is different totally you pay for a sticker to say your car is emission friendly and it costs around 3 euros p+p and thats it.. for as long as you can read the details. So the car is deffo being used as a cash cow in the uk and where will the money come from when we go more and more towards zero emissions.
