It can be done, just not by 2035. Not with the clowns we have in now anyway, or the ones that will follow. Unless there's major "pushes" in the next few years, it ain't happening.

"Pushes" as in mass rollout of charging stations, more investment into EV tech that will lead to better range in cars, incentives for people to buy EV's like some kind of scrappage scheme (dare I say that) and affordable EV's. If the manufacturer's are at the receiving end of spiraling costs, that's passed onto the consumer. The costs have to come down for them to make them cheaper to buy for us. There's a lot of factors that have to be considered... I just can't see how they'll do all that in 11 years.

The climate agenda has gone stale. People aren't buying into it. Manufacturer's have stopped EV production and its likely that more will follow. If the manufacturer's stop, there definitely won't be any EV's! Well, not new ones anyway.
