The Environmental Wack Job’s war on motorcycles in England. An example of the lunacy

Now obviously motorcycles do not click everyone’s boxes or fit everyone’s needs, but it is quite difficult for me to understand how anyone could be sold out to climate change, and reducing the global carbon footprint and yet reluctant to encourage more motorcycle transportation, and yet that is exactly what many environmental wack jobs in Europe have declared war upon. Below are clearly a few net benefits off the top of my head to having more motorcycles on the roads to that of cars and trucks:

- A fraction of the carbon footprint to that of even a tiny combustion engine car, which significantly reduces air pollution.
- Gas mileage is absurdly better, even double to that of a car or truck, which would significantly reduce our energy consumption, and natural resources we pump out of the earth.
- Takes up less mass to that of a car or truck and would thus decrease traffic congestion and improve the sheer amount of air pollution overall because people would be getting to and fro much faster.
- Significantly reduces that amount of space necessary for parking.
- Puts significantly less wear and tear on our roads to that of larger vehicles traversing our streets.

Again, this is not necessarily an appeal for more and more motorcycles, although I do see that as a net benefit, as well as probably a more polite society on the roads less fixated on the TV phone in front of their faces as they drive, and their vehicle as some impenetrable force field, and much more focused on safety and the task at hand in front of them. What this is however, is a very obvious attack on anything that uses petroleum as a means of power for transportation. This can be no more clearly demonstrated IMO than in England for example which is proposing an all out ban on all motorcycles that are 125 cc’s and smaller by the year 2030, and since those smaller displacement engines consume the least of all motorcycles and are the most fuel efficient of all vehicles, why would you start there if your intent is to reduce the carbon footprint overall?

I smell draconian agendas to make the rich richer. How could I not? I say this in light of these wack jobs pushing for ever more green zones in England which strictly regulates or even bans any and all vehicles from entering certain areas of the country, as if people won’t just drive around those areas and produce the same amount of carbon still, even more given the increasing amount of congestion and miles it takes them to get to their destination. None of this makes sense. Can anyone help me wrap my head around this insanity?
