Should the government require all new cars to be electric or hybrid by a certain date?

Electric and hybrid vehicles use electricity and a combination of electricity and fuel, respectively, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease emissions. Proponents argue that it significantly cuts pollution and advances the transition to renewable energy sources. Opponents argue that it increases vehicle costs, limits consumer choice, and may strain the electric grid.

No, the effect that driving non electric vehicles has on the environment is considerably less than big corporations. This change would bring the level of carbon emissions down by an amount that makes it a pointless effort.

Yes and no it’s really important for the environment but I feel like they should just highly encourage and make electric care somewhat more available for people

Yes at least Hybrid but focus on introducing better ways to create electric vehicles or push for Hydrogen Engines.

Cars numbers should be dropped heavily via taxes and alternatives like public transport, and they should all be as environmentally friendly as possible.
