SUVs Roll On, Despite Climate Crisis Calls.

Across the globe, a sight to see,
More SUVs on roads, a trend to be.
Despite climate warnings, a pivot's slow,
To smaller cars, the future's not to know.

In 2024, 54% of sales were SUVs bright,
A 3% increase from 2023, a worrying sight.
95% burn fossil fuels, a dirty fact to face,
The IEA warns, a climate crisis in its place.

Manufacturers claim, their new fleets are green,
Electric SUVs, a cleaner scene unseen.
But experts say, it's just a marketing spin,
More resources consumed, the planet gives in.

SUVs are hard to miss, with space and height,
A better view, but a larger footprint in sight.
Environmentalists cry, "This is not the way",
To save the planet, we must act today.

Sales of EVs have slowed, in Japan and Germany too,
In Europe, SUVs outpace them, a trend anew.
China leads the way, with 11.6 million sold,
The US, India, and Germany, their sales unfold.
