Diesel and Petrol ban by 2040

Finance

Following on from the ‘Faraday Challenge’ announced by the UK government this week, which presented plans to develop smarter energy for the future – we now have this brilliant new initiative announced today to ban ‘dirty diesel’ car engines from our roads by 2040.

Now, based on that time scale – it gives us 23 years to move currently from 1% electric cars to 100% – just a small ask then!! But not impossible.

Clean air & less pollution and a whole new industry to further enhance the UK – what more could we ask for? Let’s do it!

Jobs will be created in areas such as: technology, research & development, design, energy, power, batteries, infrastructure, manufacture etc. etc. etc.

And the best thing above all of these benefits? – Will be the disposal of the diesel engine which will lead to much less harmful pollution in our environment.

WIN! WIN!
