We need to do it again in about ten years, to speed up the transition to EVs. In the US, CARB states are committing to no sales of new gasoline cars after 2035. That’s a great start, but then we need to work on cutting the huge backlog of polluting cars: time for a new “cash for clunkers” to get them off the road
Cash for Clunkers was a good thing
why was it a good thing? not disagreeing but don’t really feel either way about it.
It improved the average fuel economy of cars on the road, and reduced emissions
That just made it harder for poor people to buy cheap cars.
