Labeling me a greenie in my eyes is stereotypical tabloid zombie stuff so glad to leave that there if you dont mind or we continue the bickering. I did see that report and agree on what you are saying but only to a point. The change needs to happen even in dirty grid countries along with the adoption of clean/sustainable energy production like in Spain using Solar Thermal plants. If we just rely on ICE vehicles then change will only happen at the last moment while South Australia is a perfect example of what dirty Coal does to the population with the highest lung cancer rate in Australia. If we adopt EVs then the next problem is tackling the energy grid and that would happen very quickly once EVs are accepted.
I see most new money Australian residents driving SUVs of the BMW, Audi or Benz type these days in the metro areas and they will continue to do so unless we make a larger move towards cars like the Leaf, Tesla and other niche EV cars. They are not perfect but mass adoption creates change that filters in all areas of industry.

On a different note as much as I didnt like Hybrid Toyotas bought all over the place, I do respect the change in direction they took instead of just building another German engine clone or true and tried ice burner.
