German politician and Member of the European Parliament from the Christian Social Union (European People's Party) Manfred Weber spoke out against the ban on vehicles with internal combustion engines. In his opinion, people should be allowed to buy gasoline and diesel cars if carbon emissions are offset.
I use a classic internal combustion engine with classic fuel, but then I pay for the storage of CO₂ in the soil. Maybe this is a business model of the future
He also added that other options could be hybrids and range extenders.
Recall
