While I agree with Gail that more trees would be preferable to more
cars, more EV's is much more preferable to more ICE's.
Face it, those trees are eventually going to be paved over in the
name of "progress", is it more or less noble to be felled for a
purpose that will result in less overall global pollution?
Similar conundrum near where I live. There are these little shore
birds, Snowy Plovers, which require open beach sand to lay and hatch
eggs. Currently, the feds are planning on using heavy equipment,
herbicides, and controlled burns to ~try~ and eliminate the european
beach grass and invasive shrubs that are encroaching on the nesting
areas along nearly 30 miles of shoreline. In the short term, this
seems to be beneficial for the birds, but I can't help but wonder
what the longer term consequences of a burning all that diesel,
spraying questionable chemicals and releasing loads of carbon will be
for the planet as a whole.
Maybe if the gigaplans are disrupted, new Teslas will cost the
Germans more Deutsche Marks?
