Re:UK to ban sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030: FT by sokoloff on Sunday November 15, 2020 @05:16PM (#25105449)
Order of magnitude, making a car creates about as much emissions as driving it over its lifetime. [0]

If we typically average even just 20 years from an ICE and 10 from a BEV, the BEV starts out way behind in the green race and might never catch up.

Stopping making new inefficient cars is good. Scrapping working perfectly good cars is an alloy of good and bad.
