Europe just crossed a real line: BEVs outsold petrol cars for the first time Dec 25. This isn’t policy or targets — it’s market reality. Electrification crossed the line. #Bettrification is now doing the damage. At this rate, the EU ICE ban becomes irrelevant — 100% hits well before 2035, with ease.
EVs Just Outsold Gas Cars In Europe For The First Time
Europe hit a historic milestone as EV sales surpassed gas cars for the first time, despite geopolitical headwinds.

Big moment for Europe: in December, fully electric cars outsold petrol-only cars in the EU for the first time.
This shows that clear, consistent policy works. Which is exactly why backtracking now would be a mistake. Rolling back targets or creating uncertainty would slow investment and innovation.

Canada’s economic future rests upon developing clean tech in harsh environments and exporting that to the rest of the world.

Interesting to see the Guardian's @dpcarrington.bsky.social weighing in on this. My take, as someone covering microplastics heavily for the past year (and currently sitting at a 200+ person conference with many of the scientists in question):
