Toyota Encourages Consumers to Replace Engines With Sustainable Options Instead of Buying New Car

Toyota is pushing for people to replace the engine of cars, not the entire car, in an effort to encourage a sustainable shift. “I don’t want to leave any car lover behind,” Chief Executive Akio Toyoda said at the Tokyo Auto Salon.

Toyota is suggesting that consumers simply replace the engine and inner workings of cars that are already on the road with cleaner technology like fuel cells and electric motors. Toyota said that while it will take a long time for all cars to become zero emission, something we can do quickly is to turn old cars green by replacing engines and other parts.

Recently, Toyota announced a new hydrogen combustion engine. The Japanese automaker has made it clear that they do not think that the pure electric approach is better. Instead, they believe in pursuing multiple different avenues and plans, including hybrids, BEVs, and hydrogen cars.

The time has finally come, and big oil is going down. A new PBS Docuseries Reveals How Big Oil Has Been Lying to The Public About Climate Change For Years. It’s finally time to take down the oil and gas industry; the jig is up. Our addiction to fossil fuels has created the climate crisis, and now it’s threatening our forests too. These companies have been exposed for lying, buying ads on Google, and more. With the latest IPCC report that says it’s ‘now or never ‘to take action against Climate change, we need to act fast!

While we need to cut off our dependence on fossil fuels as quickly as possible, we also must remember another major industry that is causing harm to the environment; the meat and dairy industry. A study even found that meat and dairy companies are responsible for more harm to the environment than fossil fuels. The public has had enough. Protestors in the UK are blocking oil terminals despite hundreds of arrests, and celebrities like Jane Fonda have launched committees to fight political candidates funded by the fossil fuel industry. Sign this petition to demand the United States and European Union heavily invest in wind and solar to reduce reliance on fossil fuels!

Sign this petition to demand Biden and Congress eliminate subsidies and environmental loopholes for the fossil fuel industry!
