Truedope is an idiot! The American libtards will try to follow suite but I think all electric vehicles will go over well like a fart in church. Let see an electric 3500 series dully Chevy/Ford/Dodge truck tow a stacker trailer 500 miles on a single charge. I don't think so!

Ask the folks in the Pacific Northwest how their electric cars fared with all the heat related blackouts.

Take this with a grain of salt because who knows what you can belive these days, but I saw an article the other day from a geologist that said there isn't enough lithium on the entire planet to be mined for all the planned electric vehicles. Why is U.S. & Canada trying to save the planet when 75% of the other countries on earth aren't on the same page?

What nobody talks about. They will have to dig up the whole planet, including the bottom of the ocean, to gather the minerals to scale electric car batteries. It makes drilling a hole in the ground not look so bad.

Government forced electric cars are not the answer. Let science, technology and engineering (Not Politics) lead the way ...
Scientists Found a Way to Make Synthetic Gasoline Out of Thin Air Day-to-night temperature changes could reclaim CO2 into synthetic fuels. Published: January 13, 2021 (TheDRIVE) Chinese scientists have used nanoplates that generate power from temperature changes to create synthetic methanol, which could be a clean way of removing CO2 from the atmosphere, as well as generating e-fuels. The paper, published in Nature Communications, describes a process of using the ambient temperature change over the course of a day to generate electricity, used to combine carbon dioxide from the air with water in order to make methanol. With so many combustion vehicles already in service, the race to make carbon-reduced or even net-carbon-zero synthetic fuels is on. Porsche announced last year that they would be building an ambitious, renewable-powered plant in Chile to create 550 million liters (145 million gallons) of synthetic fuel by 2026. |

The sad part is our kids are learning how to not hurt someones feelings instead of math and science, to help us lead the way in new fuel technology, while Chinese students fill our universities. Solar and wind will be laughed at in 20 years. Randy Wells I/S 5628 |

Yes, and a couple plane loads from Texas just made their way to DC to add to the problem.
BTW: Look how much Carbon just one volcano puts in the atmosphere in one day. These "Green idiots" fail to look at the facts. Mankind is only a small player. They are just falling for political movement to extort tax dollars.
