It's a beautiful theory — highways full of electric cars emitting no greenhouse gases or pollutants after being plugged into an outlet in our garages overnight. The problem, according to a new Government Accountability Office report, is that the effort may only shift the problem somewhere else.
One more fallacy of the environ-wackos down the toilet.
Never mind the fact it is ugly as all hell - and I would never put my kids in that deathtrap.
Can I ask you a serious question? Do you recycle? Do you turn off the water when you are brushing your teeth? How about lights, tv, etc. when you aren't using them? What do you care if somebody wants to drive an electric car? Maybe, just maybe, they find a gas hog to NOT be economical and prefer an electric car to simply save money. Is it possible that caring about taking care of our planet does NOT make one an *environ-wacko* as you stated.
Exactly. Which is why coal-fired plants need to be eliminated in favor of solar and wind energy.
But is that truly realistic, particularly in the land locked north east where coal dominates? Will you be able to completely and consistently replace the kilowatts generated by the coal plants no matter the wind/weather conditions?
