Wonderful news. I live in a European city, so i dont have a need to own a car, but i use my bicyle to get around town (all year). The city i live in has great air quality, and i generally avoid big car streets, but as soon as i get close to a larger road, or i get passed by a car (often hurrying to get to a red light further down the road) you really start to feel the exhaust. Inhaling and tasting car exhausts is terrible, and i think many car drivers dont think about this, as they are protected in their air conditioned box.

If your city and place of living has a good public transport system that’s feasible. The reality in countries like Spain is that once you live somewhere outside of the center the public transportation essentially sucks.

That said this will only speed up electric vehicles but with these prices I don’t see how many people are gonna afford them.

EU is only creating a golden decade for far right. Just watch.
So everyone who disagrees with current EU policies is far right? For me the divide is more "far left" vs normal :)
Yes you are right. I got infected by media and started thinking that everything right from far left is now far right.
That is all that the far right have, unsubtle threats of violence to try to get people to obey by fear.
No. People are going to vote for populist parties which will promise easy solutions, which are usually also right from the center. No violence necessary.
