Will more air pollution be produced to generated more energy for the EV ... not really, as TH uses natural gas, mostly. Not sure what else you're implying, or I'm suppose to realize, but surely the amount of air pollution from ICEVs, is more than any generated in future production of EV and or their batteries here in TH. Also consider, TH doesn't have to continue generating energy from fossil fuels, and no reason why, as they faze out ICEVs, they can't faze in, solar on every freakin' rooftop. It is the tropic. Guess that's using too much common sense, but hey, that's just me 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our system could easily supply 1 or even 3 more houses when the sun is out. Or more, if people are working and just the basics need to be on. Daytime grid production needs could be cut in half, since most aren't even home. Edited November 9, 2023 by KhunLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think EVs are great, particularly for a retired guy living in the sticks that chargers during the day, but thinking they are a the be-all-end-all is a little silly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When people are bashing people on neighborhood social groups who leave ICE idling and some cities ban idling how do we justify using aircons in EVs at a standstill.

"And these estimates do not include the hundreds of billions more in subsidies in the Inflation Reduction Act." EV's A solution that doesn't work for a problem that doesn't exist. The Texas Public Policy Foundation isn't exactly an unbiased source though, is it? Its funding and its board members basically come from a cabal of oil industry executives and GOP activists. Some of its top sources of funds are Chevron, Exxon Mobil and various other fossil fuel industry interests.

TPPF is thinking the way its donors want it to think." The Texas Public Policy Foundation You can pretty much see where they stand on the ICE vs EV debate from the fact that one of their stated goals is to "explain the forgotten moral case for fossil fuels" by rejecting the scientific consensus on climate change. One of their best known representatives, Kathleen Hartnett-White, who was appointed by Trump to his administration's Council on Environmental Quality, doesn't even believe carbon dioxide poses any environmental risk.

Anyone sitting and idling extensively in their ICEV, unless at a traffic light should be rightly criticised. The fumes generated are toxic and extremely unpleasant to smell and in some cases can even be fatal. What difference does it make when I’m using aircon, powered by electricity, whether I’m in my EV or at home? Are you advocating a ban on using electricity generated by coal powered plants? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt if many people even know what Marxism is. Since I didn't study it, I certainly didn't. Reading Wiki and you get the puppeteer spin that it doesn't really exist today ... ... "As Marxism has developed over time into various branches and schools of thought, no single, definitive Marxist theory exists." Then shows example of, contradicting itself, showing it certainly does exist today, with most of the world reaching it's final stage ... ... "Marx considered recurring class conflicts as the driving force of human history as such conflicts have manifested as distinct transitional stages of development in Western Europe. Accordingly, Marx designated human history as encompassing four stages of development in relations of production: 1. Primitive communism: cooperative tribal societies. 2. Slave society: development of tribal to city-state in which aristocracy is born. 3. Feudalism: aristocrats are the ruling class, while merchants evolve into the bourgeoisie. 4. Capitalism: capitalists are the ruling class who create and employ the proletariat." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
