The EU relies on Russian fossil fuels for too many of their hot dinners.

Couldn't it just be that people aren't buying electric vehicles because they're more expensive and not as good as petrol and diesel cars for the purposes of most people?

Has Scandanavia had mis selling scandals with sales reps flogging people products they didn't need and couldn't afford, when there were better, cheaper and more appropriate alternative products?

The UK Government has been guilty of mis selling and facilitating the Green Blob, since the Climate Change Act 2008.

"Car dealer tactics stall electric car sales"

""Dismissive" car dealers are a major barrier to boosting sales of electric vehicles (EVs) according to a new study.

Researchers, who posed as car shoppers in Scandinavia and Iceland found that sales personnel strongly pushed petrol and diesel powered cars.

Around 77% of dealerships that sold EV brands didn't discuss their existence with the potential customers.

Government signals are a key reason for these attitudes say the authors.

In this study, the researchers visited 126 car dealerships across 15 cities in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland. The team also interviewed over 250 industry experts across the region. Of the 126 dealers visited, only 8.8% of the encounters that the shopper has left them preferring an EV option over a petrol or diesel car.

Excluding Norway, a country where nearly a third of new car sales this year are expected to be electric, the proportion of shoppers opting for EVs dropped to 2.9%."

"The study has been published in the journal Nature Energy." [Where else?].

Couldn't it just be that people aren't buying electric vehicles because they're more expensive and not as good as petrol and diesel cars for the purposes of most people?

As expected:

WINNING: Trump officials discussed whether to ‘ignore’ climate data. Anthony Watts / 4 hours ago May 24, 2018

"Trump officials discussed whether to ‘ignore’ climate data: report"

"White House officials discussed the possibility of ignoring federal climate data, according to an internal memo that highlights the Trump administration’s struggles with established climate change science.

The Washington Post reports that a memo, drafted in September by Michael Catanzaro, the then-White House special assistant for domestic energy and environmental policy, discussed three options for dealing with federal scientists’ data about the effects of man-made climate change.

The options included highlighting uncertainties in the data, reviewing the scientific studies under the Administrative Procedure Act, or simply ignoring them altogether, the Post reports.

None of the options suggested by Catanzaro involved publicly espousing the dangers of climate change highlighted in the data.

Having the courage to “do nothing” is probably the best option, because so far, all the claims of “dangers of climate change” have been nothing but hot-air generated by rent-seekers."

Many Country Bumpkins have already declared their back yards Greenpeace Free Zones, as they are invasive and destructive weeds. If only the BBC and Government would do the same.
