Default Petrol and diesel car sales ban brought forward to 2035

This Adjustment will get UK based Car Markers
getting rid of more staff.


[A ban on selling new petrol,
diesel or hybrid cars in the UK will be
brought forward from 2040
to 2035 at the latest, under government plans.

The change comes after experts said 2040
would be too late if the UK wants
to achieve its target of emitting
virtually zero carbon by 2050.
Boris Johnson unveiled the policy
as part of a launch event for
a United Nations climate summit
in November.
He said 2020 would be a
"defining year of climate action"
for the planet.
The summit, known as COP26,
is being hosted in Glasgow.
It is an annual UN-led gathering
set up to assess progress on
tackling climate change.
Sir David Attenborough said
at the launch event at London's
Science Museum that he was looking
forward to COP26 and
found it "encouraging" that the UK government
was launching a "year of climate action".
"It's up to us to put before the
nations of the world what needs
to be done.
Now is the moment," he added]
