I've been saying this for years.
When was the last time you saw an environmental protest outside the docks?

On the other hand the technology does exist for zero emission cars and power on the ground therefore it would be more effective to encourage people to use only emission free options on the ground.
This is exactly what is happening in the UK and other European countries.

North America lags behind but they are getting there
