Climate catastrophists want to limit your mobility

From Yahoo! News:

UK Government Transport Minister Trudy Harrison recently spoke at a mobility conference, addressing the future of personal mobility. In her comments, she said it was necessary to ditch the "20th-century thinking centred around private vehicle ownership and towards greater flexibility, with personal choice and low carbon shared transport." That’s right, she said the quiet part loud and showed the hand of a growing number of government officials.

Harrison went on to praise not only public transportation but also bike share services, e-scooters, and ride sharing platforms. All of these are supposed to tune down how much carbon the UK is emitting into the atmosphere. As with all choices, this comes at a cost, particularly for those living in rural areas.

What’s more, 300 residents in Coventry recently expressed interest in giving up their personal cars. The tradeoff from the government reportedly would be a mobility credit worth up to £3,000. This mobility credit program has been going since March of this year, with 73 cars turned in and crushed. No, this isn’t a joke, but I wish it were.

Understandably, many Brits are upset about this. Some have asked if they should start riding their horse instead, all the in the name of “progress.” Others are tying this statement by Harrison with the looming government ban of internal combustion engines for cars by 2030. After all, EVs aren’t exactly cheap, so what better way to force people onto public transportation than by pricing them out of the vehicle market?

Oopsie!  She did say the quiet part out loud.  Haha!

As exposed in the following Ice Age Farmer video detailing the "absolute zero" plan, the climate catastrophists are very interested in annihilating automobile access for the middle and lower classes — with the obvious effect of restricting where you can go, at what times, and how fast... in particular if you don't live in a big city.  This is why their actions are always aligned with making cars more expensive, harder to acquire, and less useful overall.  Take a look at the whole agenda here.

When judging any policy, there is only one criterion that matters: The purpose of the thing is what it does.
