Your comments about the infrastructure of grid power are pretty accurate. Hugh Norton, the late owner of Grandfather Mountain, said that there are 7 coal fired power plants in North Carolina that were grandfathered in so they do not need to meet the environmental regulations, and that each of them produces more pollution than all the cars in the state.
Now Hugh was one of the leading environmentalists in the state, but one who was actually knowledgeable enough to sort out the real from the imaginary. Unfortunately most are not, their cures are usually worse than the problems. And worse yet is the politicians who jump on the bandwagon with laws that make those kooks happy. I guess thinking that we pay them to sort out the real from the imaginary and to do something about the real problems in the country is pretty naive. --graywolf K.Takeshita wrote: > > In any case, the fully electric vehicles have to be evaluated in terms of > true power source, the power plants, its environmental impact and the > efficiency etc. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
