SCOTT MORRISON, THE CAR INDUSTRY AND THE ZERO EMISSIONS LIE

EV Channels Review

John Cadogan critically dissects the Australian automotive industry's claim of being on track for zero emissions by 2050, labeling it a "lie" and "epic intelligence insulting [expletive]." He argues that the manufacturing process for any car, including electric vehicles, inherently produces significant CO2 emissions, citing the substantial carbon footprint of producing steel and aluminum. Cadogan dismisses the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI) press release as "lobby group suck-piece" and criticizes Prime Minister Scott Morrison's stance, linking it to his Pentecostal beliefs. He highlights Australia's continued lag in adopting stricter emissions standards, such as Euro 6, attributing this delay to lobbying efforts that prioritize manufacturers over environmental and public health concerns. Cadogan concludes by awarding the FCAI a satirical "poopy award" for their efforts in delaying progress.
