While the EU has taken steps to water down plans to end the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2035, we keep seeing continued and unhelpful debate in the press about the future of the UK's ZEV targets.

Imagine if cities demanded the same of car manufacturers.
Lime and Forest are on their "last warning" if they don't fix "persistent problems" with rider behaviour and dangerous parking.
Council demands “urgent action” from Lime and Forest hire bike operators to “fix persistent problems”
Islington Council has threatened that e-bike hire companies Lime and Forest are on their “last warning” and face losing permission to operate in the borough unless they deal with the dangerous parking...

#EV fact of the day.
I can "refuel" from more than one fuel type..
AC, DC, Solar, Wind, Hydro, molten salts, and even yes, Petrol and Diesel, and still be more efficient than a diesel or petrol car.

EVs beat petrol cars on lifetime emissions — even on “dirty” grids.
Battery production is carbon-intensive, but EVs quickly repay that debt and end up 21–71% cleaner over 250,000 km.
We can’t wait for perfect grids: electrify transport and clean the grid now.

Telegraph reporter furious she didn’t understand what an induction hob is.
The more likely story is that she just wanted to share the fact she can afford Smeg and Le Creuset brands.
Anyway, shall we start a go fund me for her?

Churches across the UK — some centuries-old, uninsulated, many heritage buildings — are embracing electric heat-pump systems to replace oil and gas boilers. It’s a powerful symbol of how decarbonisation and stewardship go hand-in-hand.

As we head into summer, remember to keep combustion vehicles away from dry grass as they have a tendency to do this.🔥
This happened in NZ and 28 vehicles were damaged. Hopefully combustion cars won't cause too many forest fires this season.

Ok President Trump, if you sue the BBC for $1bn for spreading lies, I’ll sue you for the same amount. I reckon Planet Earth would crowdfund that. Then I’ll buy Mar A Largo, turn it into a climate change research centre, free Melania, and put a 1000% tariff on orange face paint.
