"Every time I ask him what happens if the politicians drop their 'commitment' to the ICE ban, he proves that he can never give me a straight answer.": Manufacturers would have to drop theirs, too. Ford Is Pushing For An End To ICE Sales By 2035 MAY 17, 2022BY MICHAEL BUTLER ELECTRIC VEHICLES / 15 COMMENTS The internal combustion engine appears to be on its last legs. The internal combustion engine is on thin ICE as more and more countries set ultimatums for its eventual banishment, and while certain companies continue to fight for the right to manufacture ICE power plants, others are backing the call to end the career of these glorious, but dirty contraptions. One company that is calling for an end to the ICE powertrain is Ford. The Dearborn manufacturer is responsible for building the world's most popular sports car, the Ford Mustang, and its ICE-powered trucks have dominated US sales for decades, but it is now backing a call to end ICE sales from 2035. carbuzz.com.

I love how guys like Wharfie dance around this inconvenient truth. "True Believers" with a "Cause" tend to follow a predictable pattern when discussing their pet "Cause". In this case it's.. 1) Cherry pick hot weather events, floods, droughts, etc., (never cold weather, though) 2) Claim that such events are caused by "Global Warming", AKA "Climate Change" 3) Assert that humans are primarily responsible for "Global Warming" 4) Crying "Crisis", which demands 5) Advocating quick and irrational, economy destroying "fixes" for said "Crisis" 6) Refusing to acknowledge that just possibly humans have a tiny, if any, degree of influence on a global climate that has been changing for billions of years. CO2 (plant food) is just a tiny fraction of Earth's atmosphere, and adding a bit more will certainly help greening the planet..
