    If we’re going to ban fossil fuels 100%, we need EVs to work for everyone. If we don’t ban fossil fuels altogether, people can continue driving old cars which is bad. I know I will.

      It doesn’t have to be a binary choice. We could have regulations that require EV charging stations on new construction, from street lamp poles, etc, and still let people fill up their gas car.

      The government should probably do something to combat the proliferation of huge pickup trucks, but idk what that would look like.

      If we are going to ban fossil fuels 100% (we aren’t) but if were going to, personal vehicles would be banned for being grossly inefficient uses of space and resources to build.
