No more electric cars or stop/start switches USA. Good policy or backward step?

Look at the recent weather and tell me climate change isn’t a real thing……
Barely any snow the last 2 winters in Fife, meanwhile Aberdeenshire hasn’t seen the sun for over a fortnight at least.
It’s not about “global warming” per-say, it’s about the way the weather systems and seasons are changing more drastically.

Migrating animals cannot adapt.
Food sources depleted for all animals.
Resident birds struggling for food.
Parasites infecting and shortening fish life stocks and size.
Reduction in natural St Kildan sheep allowing weaker animals to breed reducing the gene pool strength.
Aye everything is ok.
Personally I think we are all dooooomed, ah tell ye!
So does that means that his pal Elon is not selling as many electric vehicles.

No real issue with electric cars or stop start. Whether electric is the future is academic in any debate. The simple fact is the fossil fuel engine`s days are numbered. We`ll run out of resources meaning no cars...or a Mad Max style future with people fighting over the last jerry can of diesel.
I likely won`t buy an electric car for a good while. Basically want to ensure I buy the VHS rather than the Beta max.
Trump is a dinosaur though. He wants to ensure the US keeps making money from oil and these "windmills" and electric cars are a threat.

Notwithstanding the effect on the climate, I see the positive value of electric vehicles and on/off switches, on the air quality in our big cities. Also having an on/off switch on my own car, it saves fuel, which can`t be bad.
Right, Jake, I get your logic about VHS or Beta Max. I don`t know anything about electric cars but it`s clear that you are suggesting there are two main types, one of which may become the standard and the other which may become obsolete.
