I would rather see these changes coming so I can adapt if necessary than get hit broadside. Of course I probably won't have much control over how it affects me either way and because I live in a fairly rural area; I don't expect it to affect those who live here for 30-50 years. Those in the cities though can expect it much much sooner. Especially places like L.A. where the smog is so thick it's like smoking a pack of cigs daily just living there. L.A. is a bowl so the smog just lays there until a strong enough wind blows it up and over the mountains into AZ or out to sea depending on onshore or offshore wind patterns.
When it happens; the transition from fossil fuels to electric won't be life changing. It will simply be different; an adaptation. Kind of like going from beepers to smart phones. In a way, for the sake of our FRiends in the L.A. basin, I do hope it happens sooner there than elsewhere in the USA. It would be the perfect petri dish to find out how it would work elsewhere. In a small way; CA could be a leader again in this experiment if it worked out and they could all breathe clean air again. It would still take a minimum of 10 years to transition; probably 15 and low income people would need to be subsidized.
Again where is all that power generation coming from? Do you see large scale building of nuclear power, massive coal or gas fired power stations? No.
So even 20 years down the road there still will not be enough power on the grid to power all electrical vehicles. And where does all the rare materials come from to build the batteries? Child slavery in Africa - who supports that?
Pipe dream of enviro-wackos, is all, being foisted on the rest of us.
