Only Recently Did We Realize The Danger Of Internal Combustion Engines
This is something we bet you will never know! The first commercially successful internal combustion engine was invented by Atien Renault around 1859, and the first modern internal combustion engine was invented by Nicola Otto in 1876.
Yes, they have existed for so long!
But the fact is that it was not until the 1940s that the family car really became popular. This was 75 years ago, and it was only a lifetime thing. In fact, if you had a family car in the 1940s, you would be considered quite rich! Of course, today most families have at least one car, and some families have two, three or four. One for mother, one for father, and one for each of the two children.
Of course, unfortunately, in the 1940s, we did not know the terrible impact of these wild animals on the climate. People who own cars never thought that cars would cause damage to the environment. If cars are just the privilege of the rich, it may not be because there are not so many cars.
But just like many others, cars have become the desire of all families, thanks to Henry Ford. This is not criticism. Nobody, including Ford, foresaw the damage of internal combustion engines to the earth.
If you think about it carefully, we didn’t realize what damage plastic would cause to our planet five years ago. You never thought about picking up plastic bags in the supermarket. Why? This is just something you can take home with you, and throw it in the trash when you go home. So?
Today we learned more. There is no criticism of anyone. We just don’t know what damage cars will do to the earth. Shit, just 10 years ago, our government persuaded us to buy diesel cars. Because they do less damage to the environment than gasoline!
Yeah, yeah, yeah
There is an old saying that we are absolutely right in our life and study.
Now we understand the harm to the earth caused by using fossil fuels, driving gasoline and diesel vehicles. Although we have done this for more than 100 years, we have not considered it. Now we know better. We are converting to electric cars. This will be faster than you think.
One of the reasons is the development of battery technology, which enables electric vehicles to run farther than they do now after a single charge. Another reason is that our government recognizes the importance of stopping the use of gasoline and diesel, and has taken measures in this regard to introduce OLEV subsidies.
If you don’t fully understand what this is, the government will donate money to let you install an EV charger at home. This is a considerable amount. How about 500 pounds?
In addition, in Scotland, the Energy Savings Trust Consortium will also pay an additional 300 pounds, which means subsidizing almost all the costs of installing electric vehicle chargers at home. Another fact is that the driving cost of an electric vehicle is about half of the price per mile of gasoline or diesel vehicles. Why don’t you?
Most importantly, electric vehicles do not need plugs or oil, so they do not need to replace a new plug every 10000 miles. So electric cars are very good for the environment and pockets.
In addition, if the operating enterprise can obtain OLEV workplace subsidies, set up electric vehicle charging stations in offices, factories or other places, and employees can work during the day to charge their cars. Hate what?
