The world’s second largest automaker, Volkswagen, finally woke up to the 21st Century. In an announcement made this month, we finally get a decent response to transportation in the 21st century from a car company.
The company has said it will transition to make only electric vehicles in the future. It is a big gamble, especially in the U.S. where charging stations are few and far between.
But it also is right in tune with Millennials, especially vocal this month about the climate emergency and short time left to save the planet from fossil fuels.
To be clear, electric cars are still polluting, not only in the making of the electricity but also the roads, and the metal drippings/droppings falling off your car every day. But it is the right response. If anyone is going to be driving in a few decades, it has to be with an all-electric car.
