.Frans π΄ββ οΈ saying there's a change in mentality and most young people nowadays don't care about owning a car as long as they can get from A to B in a convenient and environmentally-friendly way.
Couldn't agree more!

Inspiring speech by VP Frans π΄ββ οΈ at #TE30YEARS event on a #GreenRecovery for transport. The EU should:
1β£ increase ambitions to push manufacturers towards zero emissions;
2β£ improve/expand infrastructure;
3β£ ensure harmonisation throughout EU, e.g. universal charging systems.
At the #TE30Years online event of Transport & Environment, Frans Timmermans stresses that it would be a historic mistake and huge disservice to future generations if we did not use the enormous COVID recovery funds to invest in true #transitions rather than in soon obsolete industries!

Clear final statement Transport & Environment director William Todt on CO2 standards for cars: for the climategoals 100% zero emission new carsales in EU is needed in 2035. That means todays standards for 2030 are too low (~35%)...More than 50% EV in 2030 is needed. #TE30Years
'I worry that we will start throwing money at industries that have no future' Frans π΄ββ οΈ about the EU recovery funding at #TE30years event. Yes Mr Timmermans - that's why the EU should be investing in cycling, the industry of the future! Cycling Industries Europe
Strong statements in favour of #clean mobility by Frans π΄ββ οΈ at #TE30YEARS but vehicles just described as #transport assets and not decentralised #energy resources. This is a key (r)evolution to support #EUGreenDeal and #ClimateNeutralEU

EV ambitions Volkswagen Group are skyhigh...but will they support more ambitious emission standards for cars in 2030? Thatβs the key question... #TE30years
' #Cycling must be #safe and easy. Luckily, cycling infrastructure is much cheaper than car or public transport infrastructure, making it much easier to implement. We are doing it here in #Berlin '
