Best thing they can do to help achieve carbon neutrality is kill themselves

im giving them the thanos gauntlet

@notaglobe Interesting article

Not sure about its veracity but the spectator gives it some credibility

They interviewed a climate extinction group leader and when pressed on their carbon neutrality by 2025, they mooted replacing all the vehicles on the road with electric - when asked how much it would cost, they claimed "10s of millions of pounds gained from preventing corporate tax dodging"

They're too stupid to live

They are completely nuts but I doubt the climate cultists will ever acquire any real political power

well if we could get amazon and google to pay up, tbf we could probably buy a new jaguar ipace for every family in the uk

and fucking starbucks

They already have real political power

no they dont, extinction rebellion are fringe, its the corprate greta-train you need to worry about

ANd no, you couldn't. Replacing every petrol and diesel car in the UK with a Jaguar iPace would cost in the region of a trillion pounds

when i give ER the thanos gauntlet, then you can start to worry because they're going to mash that 50% button over and over

hypothetically speaking, best case scenario is a government incentive to buy electric

norway style

That's completely unfair, Crafty

i' m not saying what i want/agree with, i'm saying from their point of view

You're taxing the poor to give to the rich

Moving to electric cars right now prices the poor out of being able to travel

i wonder how much it would cost for the govt to subsidise every car switch to an electric one, footing the bill of whatever the equivalent model is to what the people would have bought instead

Ehhh... the new libdem leadership are undoubtedly sympathetic with ER but they're aren't going to ban diesel vehicles anytime soon

about a trillion pounds, system11

told you

so a fiat 500 buyer gets subsidised to buy a nissan leaf, or whatever

no, that was jaguar ipaces, those are expensive

ok, 750 billion then

leafs are about 30k unsubsidised

in many cases the difference is going to be 2-5k

nope

a leaf is 30k

what

fucking hell

my car cost £4500, that's a £25k difference

many people buy cars in the sub £1000 range

whats the cheapest electric car atm?

about £30k

oh dear

And they have a lifespan of 7 years

typically

i honestly didnt realise theyre that overpriced

Aye
