Boris Johnson Propose Ban On New ICE Vehicle Sales In The UK By 2035

The change comes after experts said 2040 would be too late if the UK wants to achieve its target of emitting virtually zero carbon by 2050.

Boris Johnson unveiled the policy as part of a launch event for a United Nations climate summit in November.

He said 2020 would be a "defining year of climate action" for the planet.

Maybe the ghost of Christmas Future visited him last night. I wonder how this will play out in the UK. And if others will follow.

I'm surprised that Boris would do this, but I'm sure he figures he'll be long gone by then and any promises made to appease the environmentalists now don't mean squat.

Can we ban that thing on top of his head? It looks more harmful to the environment than ICE vehicles

He's a man of wealth. That's the best he can do? Trump is a billionaire and that's the best he can do?

Wealth and privilege apparently does not grant you class, common sense, style or taste.

Good to see they are who they are... not putting on Aire's... That's for Liberals, trying to be something they are not...

And while a long shot at the moment if Mike Bloomberg became president he would also ban "ice" vehicles from US by 2025.

2025 is too aggressive, but 2030 might be doable under the right conditions. It's coming, just a question of when.

I strongly suspect some of the guys commenting here have that same hairdo.
