Pure evil. And nuts.
What do they think fuels electricity? The three major categories of energy for electricity generation are fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and petroleum).
What next, banning the air we breathe? The great climate hoax. Funny. Not funny.

California to ban sales of all new gas-powered cars beginning in 2035
By: Breanne Deppisch,, August 24, 2022
Regulators are expected to ban the sale of all new gasoline-powered vehicles beginning in 2035, a major step for the largest auto market in the United States and one that the Democratic government hopes can accelerate the transition toward electric vehicle adoption.
The rule is expected to take effect Thursday following a vote by the California Air Resources Board, according to the New York Times. It also sets interim targets to help phase out the sale of internal combustion engine models: By 2026, it states, 35% of new cars sold must be zero-emissions vehicles — an amount that climbs to 68% in 2030. Currently, just 12% of new cars sold in the state are electric vehicles.

California is the largest auto market in the U.S., meaning its actions are likely to have an outsize impact on the auto industry. It would be the first ban on internal combustion engines within the U.S.
In announcing his support for the plan in 2020, California Gov. Gavin Newsom noted that transportation accounts for more than 50% of California’s greenhouse gas emissions.
He also noted that without taking such a step to accelerate actions to reduce transportation emissions, the state will not be able to achieve its goal of a carbon-free economy by 2045.

News of the ban comes just one week after President Joe Biden signed into law the largest-ever climate spending bill, which injects some $369 billion in spending for clean energy programs and efforts to fight climate change.
The new law aims to incentivize electric vehicle manufacturing and sales in the U.S., including through the expansion of a $7,500 electric vehicle tax credit for consumers.
