The real objective is to ban all travel, any use of fossil fuels, this is just to get us used to staying at home in our 15 minute city where we will not own a car, but can use a rental car 100 days a year, like is already in effect in England. I saw Bill Gates yacht - he had two submarines and a helicopter, his life style needs plenty of fossil fuels, is he trying to save the gas for himself?
