The Decision of Authorities in the State of Wyoming Is a Protest Against Recent Bans Implemented by California and New York in the Oil and Natural Gas Sector. The Controversial Law Foresees the Ban on the Sale of Electric Cars Until the Year 2035.

Even with all the advances in discussions about the electrification of the international transportation sector and new technologies adopted in the segment, it seems that not all regions believe in this initiative. As of this Thursday, (01/19), the U.S. state of Wyoming has a bill that prohibits the sale of electric cars in the area until the year 2035. This is a controversial decision that could significantly impact the oil and natural gas sector over the coming years.

After being presented in the state, the law that prohibits the sale of electric cars until 2035 already has strong support from members of the House and Senate of Wyoming, says the publication.

The state is currently the eighth largest oil producer in the United States, despite being the least populous in the country.

Thus, it has a strong influence in the region’s oil and natural gas market and intends to continue maintaining this position.

The law presented in the state states that the transition to electric vehicles “threatens the continuity of jobs in the oil and gas industry” and could affect thousands of residents.

“The minerals used in batteries are not easily recyclable or disposable, which means that municipal landfills will be required to develop practices to dispose of these minerals safely and responsibly,” the text concludes.

Finally, the creation of the bill is yet another form of protest against the current discussions in other states of the country, aiming for a true legislative clash in the coming years.
