Is personal responsibility or government regulation more effective in reducing overall fuel consumption?

 @9TN6ZYVfrom Ontario  answered…7mos7MO

Personal responsibility is more impactful, but the govermetn regulation must get the ball rolling.

 @9V6NDKSfrom Ontario  answered…7mos7MO

It is everyone's responsibility, but the government will need to find an alternate solution sooner or later

 @9V2M6HSfrom British Columbia  answered…7mos7MO

I feel that it is a personal responsibility because it would be more effective in reducing the overall fuel efficiency. Inorder to help reduce the overall fuel efficiency people should choose what they would want to do so that they could eventually change to electric cars and help reduce fuel efficiency. In addition, having people switch to electric cars would not help people financially

 @9TZMX2Kfrom Ontario  answered…7mos7MO

If they regulate it, companies that prouduce the fuel might increase the gas prices because they are havin this regulation, making fuel too pricey for the public.

No, provide incentives instead of penalties to create fuel alternatives

 @B4B4XQXfrom Ontario  answered…2wks2W

Yes. As close to 100% efficiency as possible. That means on the production side too. Stop making cars.

 @B49VG5Vfrom Ontario  answered…2wks2W

The biggest issues with emissions is not personal transportation. Auto makers should be subsidized for creating cleaner vehicles instead

 @B49S87Xfrom British Columbia  answered…2wks2W

Only on new sales. Forcing costly restrictions on everyone including lower income people is inequitable

 @B45TVPFLiberalanswered…3wks3W

The government should increase fuel prices to incentivize more fuel efficient cars while boosting revenues

 @B4554CYfrom British Columbia  answered…3wks3W

I think auto makers are doing their best in this regard. Electric vehicles are becoming more and more popular, despite them being equally hard on the environment.

 @B454V2Dfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

Not for personal use. Perhaps for commercial use based on the size and fossil fuel use of a company.

 @B442LWMfrom Manitoba  answered…3wks3W

Only if they get a benefit. Can’t impose something and make people acquire the cost. In the states electric vehicles didn’t have a fee and now they imposed it. People bought those vehicles to save money in other places and still got dinged. Make an incentive and keep your word

 @B43GQ8Qfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

Yes, but impose it over the next few years so that citizens can pay off their currents vehicles and smoothly transition

 @B35Q7K5answered…2mos2MO

Gov't should incentivize development of more fuel efficient alternatives as opposed to punishing for current status quo and increasing consumer costs

 @B2VDB45Greenfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Research into alternative power method that neither promote fossil fuels nor encourage strip-mining in unethical conditions

 @9WYDMSDfrom British Columbia  answered…5mos5MO

Yes, so long as it doesnt cause more harm than good with excess emissions systems or phasing out of enthusiast vehicles like cars with V8s. we can also increase fuel efficiency in diesel trucks by 33% by removing the DEF systems from diesel vehicles, diesel vehicles already tend to be quite fuel efficient as well, doing so would be much better for the environment than building 2 engines per diesel vehicle because the DEF systems destroy the engines unnecessarily.

 @9VY5FM6Conservativeanswered…6mos6MO

Impose no, offer incentives not penalties for larger vehicles. I.e. pickup trucks...do not penalize by increasing insurance etc but allow for insurance breaks for vehicles that meet the fuel efficiency standard.

 @9V5Q48Yfrom British Columbia  answered…7mos7MO

Meh...depends how important the transport is and how much it is used per day.

 @9V4L9WZNew Democraticfrom British Columbia  answered…7mos7MO

I believe the government should enforce this type of rule to make the world more clean but I also think that if it becomes a problem for families that aren't able to afford the demmand for new cars, they should get funding from the goverment or be excused from the standards until they are able to comply with the order.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Can stricter fuel efficiency rules really make a difference in fighting climate change, or are there bigger issues at play?

 @9WSVFNVfrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

Bigger issues are at play since eve if we cut back on gas, That still won't change years of pollution

 @9SLJBJVfrom British Columbia  answered…8mos8MO

Only if those standards also dictate that the vehicle is comparably affordable to average people and working class poor.

 @B38NWBTfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Only if public transportation is improved alongside it (better service times, more routes, more affordable, etc)

 @B377SY3 from British Columbia  answered…2mos2MO

 @B3YLM9Dfrom Ontario  answered…4wks4W

Yes but not at the expense of the driver/consumer as our transportation system is designed for commuting via cars

 @B3QNMWTfrom Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

I'm all for better fuel efficiency. Cars have spiraled out of control when it comes to cost. There should be subsidies for vehicle purchases.

 @B3CPZL7answered…1mo1MO

Should the UK labour party leader and prime minister petrol markets of prices how it work when Ib person is pick and go issues by u.s president revolution in based are vehicle standard ecology in progress

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

How might higher vehicle prices from fuel efficiency regulations impact families with lower incomes?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

How do you think your daily life would change if all vehicles became more fuel-efficient tomorrow?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Do you trust car manufacturers to innovate and improve efficiency on their own, or does the government need to push them?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Should consumers be more concerned about the environmental impact of their car purchases or the financial impact?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

In your opinion, is it fair to require older, less fuel-efficient cars to be phased out if it helps the environment?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Do you think the push for higher fuel efficiency is helping or hurting the shift towards electric vehicles?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

How would you feel about paying more upfront for a car if it saved you fuel money in the long run?

 @9ZK3JNSfrom British Columbia  answered…5mos5MO

Yes, we should put more research into the automotive industry to develop new ways of saving fuel but without decreasing the performance and reliability of vehicles and without pushing for the end of V8 engines.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Do you believe people are more influenced by fuel costs or environmental impact when choosing a car, and what about you?

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...5hrs5H

Yes, and also invest in high speed rail and public transportation
