“Ban on combustion engines - A question of tactics”
tageszeitung
Forcing global carmakers based on 130-year-old technology to switch to e-mobility will be complicated and protracted, writes Hannes Koch in a commentary for tageszeitung. He says even the Green party depends on the well-being of large companies for its election success and so has to make compromises. Koch writes that it is not so important whether the phase-out will happen in 2030 or 2034, and the decision on a date could be postponed a little longer. “But eventually, the decision will have to be taken […] No date means: no climate policy.”
