Massive air drop on John F’in Kerry’s houses from 50,000 feet with every one of them. Or the next WEF meeting.
What’s the matter? The e-bus manufacturers and dealers got their money, which was the real purpose for all this. So all is good.
I worked on a lot of NG vehicle projects during my career. It’s indeed a great fuel for some applications, especially transit. Unfortunately, the handwriting was on the wall once the insane EV push started. NG went from “clean, green, natural gas” to “dirty carbon.” A lot of lost opportunity.
Use them to bus the invaders to the blue cities.
"The e-bus manufacturers, dealers AND POLITICIANS got their money"Of course, the politicians are all dealers, too. They deal us a crooked deal every time.
COMPLETELY paid for by YOUR TAXES!!
I was one of thousands stuck on 95 in Virginia. I had 1/4 tank of gas, no food and a little water. I had zero concerns about freezing to death or running out of gas.
I was heading south and planning to fill up once I got through northern Virginia and I wasn’t listening to the radio. No idea my life was about to stop for 15 hours. It was just a small adventure.
Boston’s had excellent results with its Natural Gas fleet“
So of course the rats want to eliminate NG.
“...Proterra, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in August...”
But of course. They made their fortune off the filthy Biden scam and are getting out while the getting is good, Ashville a bunch of ringpieces anyhow.
Our local transportation agency here on the California central coast Santa Cruz Metro bought 8 Proterra ev buses for $10 million. They are sitting unused.
Nashua has the natural gas city busses too.
However, didn’t Mayor Wu buy a bunch of Electric School buses about six months ago. I seem to recall Greg Hill on WEEI talking about this.
Do we wonder where all the excess payments went???
Something to consider....all that tax money used to support ‘green energy’ and ‘zero emission vehicles’ has it’s own carbon footprint. It took commerce to produce the tax revenue, and commerce has a CO2 per dollar of revenue cost. It may be small PER DOLLAR, but when the dollar amounts reach BILLION$ it is quite significant.
Depending on the amount of mileage they got out of these things before they went kaput, counting the amount of conventional energy needed to mine the materials, produce the metals and plastics used, build the batteries and supply the electricity needed to charge them, among other expenses related to fabrication and delivery, etc, it’s likely that many of these buses - perhaps most - led to a net *increase* of carbon dioxide emissions before they died.
And would one expect anything less from these smarter-than-thou greenies?
“”Granholm made $1.6 million selling her stock in the company””
Using the phrase “wetting their beak” no longer suffices for the massive money transfers to the democRATS. Even the latest phrase “10% for the Big Guy” fails to encompass the size and scope of the grift.
Here is a great example. Jamie Gorelick
Gorelick is most famous for implementing the “wall” between intelligence agencies while serving under Billy Boy Clinton. Clinton didn’t want anyone being able to connect the dots on all of his shenanigans. This ‘wall’ was instrumental in stopping America from preventing 9/11. And to really put insult to injury, Gorelick was appointed to the 9/11 Commission to “find out what happened.” To reward her for all her ‘good works’ she spent some time on the Board of Fannie Mae, raking in $$millions$$. Eric Holder also benefited as a Fannie board member. Today, Gorelick is now receiving more government largesse serving on as Chair of the Homeland Security Advisory Council for the Hussein/Biden Regime. No doubt making absolutely sure that the US border remain as porous as possible.
"I'm sorry, but so much was consumed and twisted by the battery fire."
Alien dinosaurs?
“Natural gas? But that’s a “fossil” fuel (methane) that the commies will ban.
But how did this “fossil” fuel get on Saturn’s moon, Titan?”
Don’t be silly.
Everyone knows there was Dinosaurs on Titan, and Saturn.
That’s why it has racetracks around the outside.

Oh.
Turn’em into migrant shelters.
Be sure to keep them fully charged.
