  11. Cars are still stupid, tho. It probably pollutes 100 times more to build a Tesla (even the little one) than an ebike.

  12.  @pumpkin9916  First, you make it sound like the manufacture of a car is a trivial amount of the thing's lifetime GHG emissions. It's not. Estimates vary, but the lowest one I've seen still says that 20% of the car's emissions will be from its manufacture. Second, you realize a Tesla still uses oil, right? That differential is not lubricated in electrons, and neither are wheel bearings or suspension points. Even Elon has to do business with Exxon. Yay, capitalism! There are also the huge tires which have a high embodied energy cost, and wear fast with 5000 pounds and almost 500kW bearing down on them. Oh, and the Saudi Arabia of rubber (Indonesia) gets 87.5% of its power from "dino" and coal. (Source: https://www.geni.org/globalenergy/library/national_energy_grid/indonesia/index.shtml) Oh, and let's not forget the power source used to charge the mighty (large) Tesla in many (most?) places in the US is also coal, nuclear or/and natgas. Every mile driven is more pollution for people not lucky enough to be inside the carbon-filtered cockpit. Up here, Quebec has massive hydroelectric dams covering several thousand square miles, and makes enough power for its own needs and those of several states in the US Northeast. The trouble with that? The land flooded by damming was mostly forest, which actually makes more GHGs in decomposing than the entire project will save over the course of a century. No shit. It also results in the leaching of lead into the water table, killing both the wildlife and Indigenous peoples (Cree, Inuit, Innu) who live in Northern Quebec with disproportionate levels of cancers and reproductive harms associated with (wait for it...) exposure to lead. The key point here is, regardless of fuel source, hammering the shit out of your car pollutes a lot more than not doing so. A lighter vehicle will also out-accelerate and out-brake a heavier one -- all other things being equal -- while requiring less fuel do to so (again, regardless of fuel type). HTH.

  13.  @ShaneMckinley-dc9sx  Auto racing is destructive to the environment, regardless of motor fuel source. Other than that, who cares by how much a car can exceed the legal speed limit on a freeway? FOH, kid.

  21. They already were. There are certain places where people with Priuses (or "Prii", as these clowns call them) are revered, like Seattle, and I presume it's no different with the Leaf and i-Miev. OTOH, what would you call a Mercedes S-class?

  26.  @CoffeeTechClub  Do you really think a LamborghAudi, or even a Corolla, has the same level of efficiency as a LNG, Diesel or even coal generation plant? LOL

  27.  @Andytlp  You're generally right, but it should be pointed out that any electrical system is most efficient with the shortest possible circuit, which doesn't favour huge generating stations located hundreds or even thousands of miles from the intended user. There are also environmental costs to large-scale generation projects, that will last for centuries after the last electron has been wrung from them (e.g. the huge hydroelectric dams in Quebec and Labrador, where mercury is leaching into the water that people and animals drink, with devastating consequences). Oh, and there's also the issue of storing this wonderful grid energy, which is no small matter given the exploitation of places with lithium deposits usable for batteries. Like, the name "GigaFactory" should clue people in that things being done on that scale cannot be considered benign from an environmental standpoint! People need to consume less everything, regardless of the fuel source used. Teslas are good compared to dino-burners, but dog shit compared to ebikes, which themselves are dog shit compared to regular bikes, which are dog shit compared to walking. So, in short, just walk there.

  28.  @Andytlp  I agree with all of that. Also, capitalism will not allow change because captialists know there will always be enough earth for them to inhabit, as well as their servants and such. In short, commie revolution is literally our only hope. Trying to solve capitalism with capitalism is like what Wiggum is encouraging Homer to do... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b97zJxKEqAk&t=4s

  30.  @Andytlp  EVs were better for all the same reasons when they first came out...in the 1890s. I wonder in whose interest it was for them to never catch on...

  31.  @Andytlp  Politicians need not be bribed, per se. Their job is, factually speaking, to keep the workers in check so the capitalists (including oil tycoons) can keep fleecing us. They are not even in power, it's just a sideshow.

  32.  @Andytlp  Also, I'd say the price of oil has more to do with wars and the threat of war in parts of the world with lots of oil, than actual domestic consumption patterns. Must be a coincidence, lol.

  33.  @Andytlp  lol @ Norway. StatOil is just another oil company, regardless of who he shareholders are. They also do "exploration" abroad, which is to say they're fully invested in the white supremacist superstructure which, as I already stated, operates above the level of bourgeois electoral politics. With respect, I think you are believing too much "Berner" nonsense. The fact is that social democracy is simply the left wing of capitalism. It doesn't seek to replace it, only make it seem nicer (for as long as they're in power, which is rarely or never).

  34.  @Andytlp  And seriously, the bribes thing is not how you imagine at all. These sleazoids don't pay each other with banknotes stuffed into brown paper envelopes, but with admittance to Harvard, fake references on a resume, invitations to networking events parties, etc. OK, probably some cash too, but that's relatively small time because even physical gold in the amounts needed to bribe someone high up are larger than is convenient to carry.

  35.  @goldigit  FYI, dingus: There are 300 years of proven oil reserves on tap. There's more than enough oil to keep using it until it kills most people, but most of the bourgeoisie will live.
