A useless battle. Facts simply don’t matter to Green idealists who live in Never-Never Land. To them nothing is impossible if only enough “other people’s money” is spent on it.
The fact is that this is a year old story and there is a reason that the New American has re-birthed the story.
The story quickly faded last year when it came out because it was not accurate.
The author of the book clarified himself to say the issue was not whether or not the electric car was as green as some say, but that it is an error to think that electric cars are a solution to the environmental problems with cars.
Considering the number of cars in use plus the additional cars that will be put in use as more Chinese, Indians, Mexicans, Africans, etc drive cars, only a fool would think that electric cars are a solution to the problem.
But anyway, here it a year later and everyone has forgotten what author of the book was really saying so the New American has re-birthed the story.
