Enter the BEV, the ‘Solution’ to the Politicians and Environmentalists Prayers
摘要
Chapter 3 describes the entry and detailed evolution of the BEV. It provides a summary of every significant BEV development in the period 1950–2000 (including approximate sales volumes per model/year), the Kyoto Protocol, the initiatives of the new millennium and the growth and influence of the Chinese market, providing a summary and evolution of every major Chinese automotive company (including models and approximate sales volumes per model/year) and details of Chinese state development programmes. It then describes the 2010–2020 entry of Nissan, Tesla, Volvo, and the big established auto manufacturers, together with descriptions of all of their BEV models, approximate prices ranges, driving range, and approximate sales volumes by model. The chapter goes on to describe the relevant provisions of the 2015 Paris Agreement and IPCC Reports and Climate Action. In that context, it continues to assess changes in land use and urbanisation, natural factors, oceanic emissions and changes, cyanobacteria, sources of human-generated CO2 emissions, the number of cars or number of humans, and the Darwinian outcomes.
