EU to ban cars from cities by 2050 to force drivers to go 'green' | Mail Online

EU to ban cars from cities by 2050 to force drivers to go 'green' | Mail Online: "The vast majority of British motorists will be outlaws in their own land under controversial new EU plans to ban petrol and diesel powered cars from cities.

But critics said the latest Brussels blueprint to force people into 'green' cars, slash dependence on oil and tackle climate change, was bamboozling drivers and taking the European Union into 'the realms of fantasy'.

The European Commission says its plan to drive out 'conventionally fuelled' petrol and diesel cars within 40 years and replace them with 'clean' alternatives such as electric or hydrogen powered vehicles is necessary to save the planet."
