Unless a huge, and I mean gigantic, upgrade in batteries is achieved there is no future for electric cars and especially if we do away with coal fired plants, which should be augmented with nuclear power.
HAHAHAHA
Where did I mention that coal is not a fossil fuel?
1) We have the worlds largest reserve of coal
2) clean coal is actually way cleaner than burning oil
3) I already said that we generate most of our power from coal
4) I also mentioned that we are not at the level to rely on renewables.. clearly but you of course had to act like i said nothing.
5) My answer was a response to a poster who said well electricity comes from oil so we arent saving anything.. I retorted saying most of it is actually coal, and the whole point of maybe going electricity is to lower our dependence on OIL. Because if we dont need it for cars then we dont need it for anything since we produce our electricity from other methods namely coal and nuclear. The whole point is foreign dependence.
I dont even know what the hell you are attacking me on.. You just assumed a bunch of things I didnt even say and somehow came with the notion that I’m not bright. Actually I even said what you are saying in your post that renewables are unrealizable at the moment. And why would we even do away with clean coal plants?
My whole point was reducing dependence on oil.. not fossil fuels which would be completely retarded. Im talking from an economic point of view and not an environmental one which you seem to think I am.
Learn to read better before criticising people about their intelligence.
Actually rereading my post and then yours im completely dumbfounded at your response. Im guessing youre quite the old timer, cranky and a dwindling intellect.
