Diesel-gate skandalen satte dieselmotorn och utsläppen i fokus, och det talas om förbud mot bilar med dieselmotorer i vissa städer. Men i debatten och jakten på att hitta åtgärder med stort symbolvärde förloras det faktum att det är varken dieselmotorn eller dieselprocessen som är problemet utan problemet ligger i det fossila dieselbränslet. I framtiden kommer […]
