Make that electricity with coal.
Screw the notion about global warming.
What will be the cost/impact of disposing of batteries?
Multipronged energy - solar, wind, hydro, GEO, nuke, fossil - each has its place and efficiency.
Dont let zealot ideology hamper humanity.

just remember there is no free lunch. That electricity has to be generated somewhere....
I chuckle a little every time I hear someone talk about how much more environmentally friendly electricity is. Used to live just off of the Ohio River, and after watching seemingly endless numbers of barges and trains moving coal, I looked into how much coal a typical generating station uses. Average consumption for the station closest to me was 20,000,000 lbs a day, every single day, all year long. I was amazed at the number.
That said, I think electric powered delivery trucks are a great idea, especially if they can develop even more effective regenerative braking.
^^^ Which translates to 10,000 tons per day X 365 days + 36.500,000 tons per year. Multily that times the 1308 plants in te US and that numbetr be comes astronomical. Thats a lot of coal.
Yeah, those dolphin bastards always seem to be smiling about something and it makes me worry if they know something I don't.
I have always loved dolphins. When I was a kid they were my favorite animal, and I was a Miami Dolphins fan because well, Dolphins. That said, this was freakin' FUNNY!
I have hated those things ever since I was a kid. All started with a trip to Sea World as a kid watching the dolphins and killer whales perform. Obviously all the kids liked to stay in the front row to get splashed, but not me. I would always be way up in the back because I was smart. If it was just normal freshwater being splashed at me I wouldn't have had a problem, but it was salt water and I did not wanna go around smelling like the ocean all day long. Anyways, after the show all us kids got to pet the dolphins and when it was my turn to to pet it, I guess the trainer saw I was the only dry kid and I guess gave the secret command to splash me. So fuck those things with their stupid ass smiles and annoying sounds. I'd love to shove a 1/2 stick down their blowholes!
Fun fact, other than humans, dolphins are the only mammals that masturbate and have sex for pleasure.
you know that from first hand experience do ya?
all that talk about splashing and shoving sticks into blowholes got you all hot and bothered eh?
That's incredibly sick, but it also reads like a shock/hype "I was abducted by aliens" piece from the Enquirer, etc.
Nope, my dog will hump teddy bears, blankets , and pillows. He likes it so much when you go to smack him to stop. He doubles down and speeds up.
Makes sense for Europe to switch to electric cars. Then they can buy more power from Russian coal plants in the winter.
