Stockholm Today; Your City Tomorrow By Richard Miller (London)

Woke things happen fast in manic Sweden. Stockholm, Sweden’s capital, will ban the use of petrol and diesel cars in most areas, beginning in 2025, with a few exceptions. This is just a model for bigger and even more tyrannical plans to achieve the sacred zero net for the cult of climate change alarmism. The push will be on for electric cars, but there is always the likelihood of making a 15-minute city, where the people will take public transport, or simply walk. This sort of thing is gaining momentum here in the UK, especially with non-white London, and it will come to your city, wherever you are in the West, including Australia unless the climate change hysteric can be successfully refuted and politically defanged:

“Stockholm plans to ban petrol and diesel cars from some city areas starting in 2025 to reduce traffic noise and improve air quality, according to the city’s vice mayor for transport.

The plan creates an environmental zone in the heart of Stockholm, spanning 20 blocks that include high-end shopping streets and some of Sweden’s priciest office spaces.

The Green Party, part of Stockholm City Council’s left-wing and environmentally-focused ruling coalition, aims to accelerate the transition from combustion engines to electric cars.

“Nowadays, the air in Stockholm causes babies to have lung conditions and the elderly to die prematurely. It is a completely unacceptable situation,” Green Party Vice Mayor for Transport Lars Stromgren said.

A class-three environmental zone allows fully electric cars. Exceptions apply for larger vans, which may use plug-in hybrid vehicles.

Some vehicles, such as ambulances, police cars, and those used by people with disabilities, are exempt from the regulation.

The Green Party plans to expand the environmental zone beyond its initial introduction.

Transport companies argued the plan was excessive and recommended investing in electric charging points instead to encourage voluntary change.

“Since 2010, we have reduced emissions by 34 per cent. But the Green Party and their colleagues in the city of Stockholm are now in far too much of a hurry,” the Swedish Confederation of Transport Enterprises said.”
