The dream of the environmentalists is for everyone to live in high rise apartments built next door to their workplace. Everyone walks to work. All that is necessary, as determined by them, is within walking distance. No one but the elite will have a car EV or otherwise. No air travel except for the elite. Forget about cruise ships. If you want to experience a safari in Africa, well, you can watch a video.
The size of the population will be strictly controlled and the population restricted to very small areas. The environmentalists have plans to remove all the cities and highways, all the traces of man from the great plains so that the buffalo herds can once again roam the west unrestricted from canada to mexico.
So, yes, they are crazy but don’t be fooled by their claims about EV. Their plans extend far beyond that.
You are probably right. And we are fools to believe them.
The EV boondoggle is not well thought out. There are very smart people involved pushing it, too. Maybe it is a religion to them. A cult. Or maybe they have sinister motives as you mention.
Surely, they can’t be that stupid. And don’t call me surely!
