Might I suggest a book called Apocalypse Never by Michael Shellenberger?

California to ban sales of fossil fuel cars in 15 years
by mickbobcat inthis will never work but liberals are too stupid to know it.
first off all you have to do is cross the border and buy a car.
if they will not let you license it in the state then many will license it out of state.

given his age and weight, he is at very high risk of needing to be hospitalized.. trump is arguably the most well-protected man on earth, and he got it.. people.....wear a fruggin' mask!.

He's flying to Walter Reed. NBC is carrying it live to see if he walks to the chopper or is on a gurney. This actually may be quite serious. Trump has not Tweeted for 16 hours.

Nothing to do with the debate, but Trump is in my town right now. I had no desire to fight the crowd to see the guy, but I did go to my secret spot by the runway and watched Air Force One come in. Of course it's dark out, but it was cool watching the plane taxi by all lit up. If you ever get a chance to see Air Force One, don't pass it up. I've also seen a couple of Presidential motorcades. Those are worth watching also.

I watched very little of it. Maybe a couple of minutes. If I want to see a couple of old geezers yelling and hurling insults at each other, I'll go to the senior center during the dominos match.

Our great great grand parents scoffed at the idea of wireless communication, micro wave cooking and men going to the moon!
True. The government has innovated many, many great things. The microwave did indeed come from radar tech developed for WW2. But, the private sector refined the product and in the end it was consumers who adopted the tech. If the microwave had followed the Newsome model, the government would have said, "We are banning the sale of conventional stoves and ovens in 15 years. You have to buy microwaves." Who knows? Maybe if the government had made such a mandate we would be living in a better world.
Again, I don't have anything against electric vehicles. When one is manufactured with comparable performance and price (without subsidy) to what is now available, the market will move in that direction. No manufacturer has turned a profit selling electric vehicles (without the subsidy), not even Elon Musk. Musk has made tons of money selling credits for his cars to companies who cannot make their "zero emissions" quota.

If this stands the whole nation and most of the world will feel it. California represents such a huge market that the manufacturers are going to gear production based on what California mandates. It also will not be just California. Many other state governments are considering similar orders for the masses. The bad part is that "we the people" keep voting for those snake oil sellers.
To be clear, I don't have a problem with electric vehicles. I would buy one if it performed similar to my current vehicle and was priced the same. The reality is dealers don't even sell electrics where I live because they don't work well (I live in cold and snow country) and the price is too high. I've seen a Tesla or two driving around - in the SUMMER! I think they get parked in the winter. My town also has a couple of EV charging stations. I have yet to see a single vehicle plugged into one.

The movie is so well made, I think a Jehovah's Witness might watch it and actually feel uplifted. The single mother loses both of her daughters, one to death when she trusted in her faith and put Jehovah first and the other lost to the temptations of this wicked world. The mother's faith was being tested and she wavered, but in the end she clung to Jehovah and his earthly organization and went out to spread his message by standing next to a literature cart. If this was shown at a convention it may well receive a standing ovation. Most other people might feel the way I did after watching it. What a sad, bland way to live one's life.
There were a couple of funny parts. My favorite was when Alex's suitor, a young elder, said, "With you working as a gardener and me a window washer, we'll be fine." Dare to dream, you two. Dare to dream.

The movie is on Amazon Prime or the cable service Epix. Here's the trailer:

The Minneapolis City Council voted to defund the police. Then Minneapolis hired private security at $4,500 a day to protect the City Council that voted to defund the police. Interesting strategy...
