12 years left to avert severe climate change impacts. We need to start doing the heavy-lifting of putting in place transformative policies that will give us the best chances of preventing massive human suffering and species extincition, and we need to do it now!

Electrifying growth

Analysis by CBI Economics has found that a failure by the car industry to make the transition to manufacturing EVs could see its contributions to the UK economy fall by as much as 73%, or £34.1bn, and see over 400,000 jobs being lost.

While North American automotive manufacturing is highly integrated, vehicle retail markets in 🇨🇦 and 🇺🇸 can diverge. From 2019 to 2024, new BEV/PHEV market share in 🇨🇦was outpacing 🇺🇸. In 2025, a dismal year for EV sales in North America, 🇨🇦continued to slightly outpace.

[Joe Homsy @JoeHomsy]

This is the result of 🇨🇦's retail market receiving a different vehicle fleet mix than 🇺🇸 (i.e. more EVs relative to EV shares in 🇺🇸), a reflection of both consumer preferences and policies here.
