If they had mandated an NG pump at every gas station the air
quality in all our most crowded cities would already be
improved, and our "CO2" emissions would be lower.
People want to do the right thing. People care. But EVs are
not a replacement for gasoline powered cars.
On one tank of gas we could go from Boston to Fort Lee NJ,
down to Hoboken and then back to Boston (in heavy traffic)
with a stop off the highway in Connecticut for a steamed
cheeseburger.
Yeah. They're weird in Connecticut. Steamed burgers are a
thing there...
It was an over 400 mile round trip.
We did this on Thursday: A 13 hour, three state tour,
though we took the subway into Manhattan for a few hours
while the car sat in Hoboken..
Still. Try that with any EV.
Lithium is also a mind altering element. It's used to
treat some pretty hefty disorders, like schizoaffective
disorder, and ALREADY areas with naturally elevated
traces of lithium in their water show a change to the
human population -- they're more docile. Violent crimes
and suicides drop. And it sounds like a good thing but
it's making normal people more docile, too. Now image
all the lithium they're mining, concentrating and driving
all over the country...
It's water soluble, impossible to keep out of the water
supply.
There's vastly tighter controls on mercury and it's already
a problem.
