I love it when politicians want to legislate physics, thermodynamics, and such. That always ends well.
Electric vehicles should rise or fall based on the market place, WITHOUT subsidies.
Want in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up first pissant
I thought they said we only have only 11.5 years left. What’s the sense in rolling out electric vehicles....we won’t be here. Ha!!
I’m sure Bloomberg would like to be 18” taller. That doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.
Well, I want to be a billionaire but that ain’t happin’ either.
Yay!! Now the Earth will be saved.
Hmmm ... where did Bloomberg say all of that
electricity is coming from?
In 2004 Hurricane Charlie closed the Orlando airport between the time my family left our house and the time we got to our local airport.
We had reservations for a princess breakfast at Disney World the next morning we could not reschedule and my 4 year old daughter would be crushed if we missed it. The airline told us it would be 2 to 3 days before we got a flight into Orlando.
I rented a minivan at the Airport and drove 1,000 miles through the hurricane to get to Disney World around Midnight. Due to the weather the trip took 16 hours and I had to stop for gas three times. We made it to the breakfast.
When they make an electric car that would allow me to make that same trip under those circumstances so my daughter wouldn’t be disappointed I will consider buying one.
Not only would we have to build the cars and the extra power generation, but millions of people live in places like apartmment complexes where there is no electric outlet close to the parking space.

Better start building nuke plants yesterday.
The additional power demand would be unsustainable on the grid with the present generating facilities.
So when the power grid is out for prolonged periods if time, how do you charge your car? Because the power will be going out all the time when everyone in the damned city is plugging in their cars.
I wouldn’t be surprised if hybrids (optimized gasoline generator engine/small battery electric car) became very prominent. But we don’t need Bloomberg putting his thumb on the scales, telling us what to do.
An analogy would be LED light bulbs It took a while for them to mature, but I find them to be far superior to incandescents. The color rendition is very good (for some at least), and the cost of operation is far superior. But, I don’t need a busybody like Bloomberg or Obama banning incandescents. They would have been mostly supplanted by LEDs without the government’s heavy hand.
Fortunately electricity grows on trees!
(Bloomjerk joins the cargo cult...)
All these carbon ending green new deal fantasy plans miss an important point. There are no farm machines like tractors and combines let alone farm trucks to haul harvests that are electric. Fertizers and pesticides that allow high yields are petroleum derived. Going back to horse drawn farming not only would not produce enough food but horses are flatulent creatures. So how do these eco-loons expect to produce food?
