EVs are booming but electric bikes are really cutting emissions
Ebikes and mopeds, known as electric micromobility, were responsible for two-thirds of the 1.5m barrels of oil displaced a day by EVs in 2022
You're viewing a single thread.
How about going after the 57 companies responsible for 80% of emissions since 2016?
You could stop directly
findingfunding the oil companies on that list by using an ebike instead of a car.Pretty sure the oil companies can always be found on that list. It’s what they do, by definition or they wouldn’t be oil companies.
I have fixed the typo
You wouldn't find oil companies on the list if we stopped using oil...
Apparently our governments are too corrupt and/or ineffectual to take any genuinely meaningful action there.
These companies make and sell the things you buy. Pretending it's nothing to do with consumers is so disingenuous
Like tabacco and asbestos?
Yes, a lot of people buy tobacco and so have a role in that industry's harmful practices. And no, nobody buys asbestos.
Are you being obtuse for any particular reason?
The reason nobody buys asbestos is because it's regulated by government, as is tobacco and while we're at it, most of the rest of society..
Regulating the 57 companies responsible for 80% of emissions since 2016 is a way to effect change at a significantly faster rate than any other option.
