from oil consuming cars to electric vehicles.  The switch from
oil consuming cars into electric vehicles (EV) requires work at
many levels and a sense of urgency by governments, corporations

your EV you should get rebates and/or tax incentives. I know
this varies across the US, but it should be a standard
everywhere.  2. In order to start diminishing the number of
cars, ALL dealerships should start buying your car at a
competitive price which in turn can be discounted from the tag
price of the EV. (This could be considered a rebate)  3. Junk
