COP26 appears to be ending on a high note.
Every country represented at the UN talks (Guinea represented China and 77 poor countries) with the exception of India (largest producer and consumer of coal) agreed to end the use of fossil fuels.
Most countries agreed to end the use of fossil fuels by 2050.
Russia, China and a few other by 2060.
The agreement also provided for financial support for displaced workers who will lose their jobs as the fossil fuel industry is phased out.
the fossil fuel industry will continue to exist as the source of the electricity that drives the electric cars. the wire that supplies the power that drives the electric motor is connected to the electric grid that is connected to the coal and gas burning steam driven turbines that generate the electricity that powers the cars. The system still produces just as much CO2, sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxide, soot, and other pollution by burning coal as it did before by burning oil and gasoline. Only the politicians are fooled by hiding the carbon pollution behind the hill. Electric vehicles get us nowhere.
