[quote=Anonymous][quote]I wonder why "D"'s think the electricity for the cars comes from pixies and unicorns. Electric cars use fossil fuels too. It's just consumed at the plant rather than the vehicle. [/quote] Sigh! I hate it when a Republican makes an uninformed argument. 1) The difference is that Electric cars are more efficient @ 80 to 90% .. and even the most polluting coal burning power plants are more efficient than burning gasoline in an internal combustion engine. So when you combine the two electric cars are far less polluting. Please do your research before you spout your nonsense. 2) In the future, there will be distributed generation of electricity using rooftop solar and wind turbines which can be used to charge your car. In fact, this is already common in lots of households in America. 3) Thirdly not all sources of electricity generation are polluting, for instance, hydro, wind farms, solar farms, nuclear. [/quote]
