Quote: Karl Hungus said: the electric car worked. they even developed a battery to extend the mileage on it to that of a normal car with a full tank of gas. we don't need carbon fuel cells or hybrid cars that still use oil unless our goal is to keep the billions rolling into texaco. had bush not pulled out of the federal mandate on zero emission vehicles we would be easily able to lower carbon emissions.
Okay, assuming that the above is true, even if you suddenly mandated that every car made be "zero" emission vehicles, it would still take decades to replace every car currently on the road with a "zero emission" car.
And where do we get electricity? Power plants. What do power plants typically run on? Fossil fuels.
That's why we must have more nuclear power.
