A political and economic union in Europe is pushing forward with a plan to ban the sale of new vehicles that run on petrol and diesel by the year 2035. The European Union has five countries that are pushing back against the ban.
What Happened: The European Union's plan is part of an effort to fight carbon emissions and help increase the transition to electric vehicles. A plan to cut carbon emissions in vehicles by 100% by the year 2035 is part of Europe’s goal of becoming the first carbon-neutral continent by the year 2050.
