In light of the push for green energy, the World Economic Forum (WEF) said actions need to be taken to lessen dependence on critical metals. Now, the organization is calling for the end of private car ownership entirely.
As countries try to move to renewable energy sources, the WEF argues that private vehicle ownership is unsustainable and proposes a model where citizens rely on shared mobility services and public transportation. The proposal would effectively eliminate personal automobile ownership for the majority of citizens.
“The future of transportation is not individual ownership but shared access,” the WEF report states, framing the elimination of private cars as a necessary step toward environmental sustainability.
Critics argue this represents another step toward a surveillance-based control grid, where movement is tracked, restricted, and contingent on social compliance. The ability to travel freely has long been considered a fundamental liberty — one that would be severely curtailed under the WEF’s proposed model.
The proposal aligns with broader Agenda 2030 objectives that many independent researchers have warned represent a shift toward total population control under the guise of environmental protection.
