Norway is a few years ahead of where the Biden admin and Mayor Pete would like to be when it comes to electric vehicles and the green agenda.

In Norway, nearly 2 out of 3 cars are electric vehicles. Most of their energy comes from renewables as well. They have achieved exactly what the green energy lefties in the United States want us to accomplish by 2030.

But that's not good enough.

Electric vehicles, as people who don't necessarily have purely environmental interests at heart are keen to point out, don't totally negate the downsides of, well, vehicles. An electric car is still a car that takes up space on roads, has manufacturing and maintenance costs, and requires energy to move it around, which has to come from somewhere. In Norway, the grid energy is pretty darned clean (92 percent comes from hydroelectric generation, the rest from a mix of wind and thermal renewables) but any car still creates emissions, like upcoming pollutant bombshell tire particulates.

So in a statement to Norway's public roads administration, Norwegian transport minister Jon-Ivar Nygard said, "Electric cars give us greener transport, but they also have a clear intermodal competition with public transport in urban areas. We must make it more attractive to travel by public transport, cycle, and walk."

If only you listen to Granholm and Buttigieg and buy the Tesla, all our energy problems would be fixed!

Except that's not actually good enough.

It will never be good enough.

In countries that are the United States' model for climate policy, they are moving past EVs and going back in time to busing, trains, biking, and walking.

The way Norway's thinking of doing that is by removing or at least reducing some of the incentives toward buying and driving EVs. The current, very generous provision was set to run until at least the end of 2022 but with public transport usage having dropped during the coronavirus pandemic (as it has everywhere) there's now a need to try and get people out of their Teslas, particularly in urban areas.

In efficiency terms, for C02 and emissions in general, it is always going to be better to use mass transit than individual cars, no matter how green they are. Norway's problem is that it gave such great incentives to buy EVs, going way back, that now people are choosing to drive their cars, powered from the cheap electricity off Norway's clean grid, rather than get on a bus or train.

The green energy EVs are now not clean enough, so Norway is going to take away incentives to purchase electric cars.

Norway made it so reasonable to buy an EV that people actually took them up on the offer.

It won't be long before electric cars will be discouraged and banned as well.

Just watch.

We'll be packed onto buses and forced to bike and walk everywhere we go if the authoritarian climate cult has its way.
