I like this, posted by Steve Davlantis on the Telegraph website, in response to the original appearance of this nonsensical piece by the ever-reliable Marxist Ambrose Evans-Pritchard.
Show me the electric tractor plowing a field.
Show me the electric Bulldozer and cranes.
Show me the electric train (Trains use diesel to produce electricity.. don’t split hairs with me)
Show me the freaking electric passenger jet.
Show me the electric Container ships.
Show me the electric Semi’s.
Tell me who’s going to install an electric charging point in every single parking space at every single mall, store and business.
Tell me how you’re going to generate the electricity for these things.
Show me ho you get the people in the suburbs, let alone rural areas, to work.
Show me the electric school bus.
As a field technician, show me the electric vehicle that can stay running for over 12 hrs a day, providing climate control while I’m in it, and using it to transport myself, my test gear, replacement components, et al to sites when they need them.. not on some schedule.
Show me the electric Ambulance and Life flight helicopter.
Show me the electric police car.
Show me how you make plastic without petroleum.
Show me how you make solar cells without petroleum.
Show me how you make carbon fiber without petroleum.
I could make this into a real list if I actually put some thought into it.
Don`t forget the Lockheed plane with the nuclear reactor. They didn’t even need to shield the reactor. Just the cockpit.
