Electric cars

It's no better for the environment. That's the point. And ask all the kids down the mines in the Sudan, or the slave labour in China if it's better for them.

Here's a couple of well balanced and researched articles:

Nice articles.

The Greenpeace one said..."But whether they’re electric powered or fossil-fuelled, all cars put a burden on the environment".

Which was my point.

Greenpeace would never be happy until we return to the Stone Age.

Erm no, you went on to say they are worse for the environment than petrol which is factually inaccurate. I just provided some evidence so at least own up to your own shit.

Will we go to war for home country electricity generation?
Require military bases all over the world to protect our supply of electricity?

Just wondering where we stop counting the cost of petroleum products to our society?

Just a short line on those questioning the supply of electricity for all those EVs. Here in Lincolnshire there are two very large projects moving to completion over the next couple of years; Triton Knoll (the on shore link for a new wind farm in the North Sea) and the Viking Link (linking Denmark to the UK electricity system) both of these will be enough for several million homes. I am sure there are more in line also.
