EU Climate Chief's Words Offer a Glimmer of Hope for a Climate-Neutral Future. In a recent statement, the European Union's climate chief has expressed optimism that the EU's ambitious goal to phase out combustion engines by 2035 may not be at risk, thanks in part to the rapid growth of electric car sales. Despite initial concerns that a decline in sales could lead to a rollback of the ban, the EU's climate chief now believes that the momentum behind electric vehicles is strong enough to ensure the ban stays on track. With many European countries investing heavily in electric vehicle infrastructure and manufacturers racing to meet the demand for eco-friendly cars, it seems that the EU's climate ambitions are still very much on course.
