    Yeah this really sucks.

    Especially the proliferation of American style ute’s in recent years, like we’re the only two places in the world that will tolerate the emissions.

    I’m also surprised about China, not for any other reason than their track record on pollution hasn’t been great.

      I’m not particularly surprised about China. They’re making big advances in this area. Their continued growth in carbon emissions is alongside growth in renewables because their total energy usage is growing insanely fast.

      With cars specifically, think about cars you’ve seen on the road here in Australia. Of the EVs, where have you seen them from? Apart from Teslas, the vast majority I’ve seen have been either Chinese or Korean.
