Phasing out of diesel cars in favour of electric cars

Phasing out of diesel cars in favour of electric cars

Diesel cars are amongst most polluting, and several European cities are considering banning them. The phasing out could take place over 10 to 20 years so anyone who invested in one recently need not be concerned. Air pollution should become a major concern. Part 2 of this could be much greater investment in the infrastructure required for electric cars (which may one day become self-driving, uber-controlled cars for everyone's benefit).

Points

Another.

Here's a reference.

Paris announced a plan to phase out diesel cars from the capital by 2020 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/dec/07/paris-mayor-hidalgo-plans-ban-diesel-cars-french-capital-2020

There is even an added Economic Benefit to all of this! Found interesting article about this: https://cleantechnica.com/2016/09/06/economic-benefits-electric-vehicles/
