Of course, that's true. But where does political support come from? It comes from the voters, who may be individuals making choices that spread to groups and communities and so on, along with social/political activism.
- Robotbeat 8y agoI personally bought two (used, on loan) EVs to replace two fossil cars. This sort of change is pretty easy since it requires no lifestyle change and the cost is roughly neutral. I've convinced two or three other people to also buy EVs; it's infectious.
- QuantumAphid 8y agoBravo on taking some action. Hopefully your electrical grid is powered by natural gas (or cleaner, sustainable sources) rather than coal-fired power plants. I also much prefer my EV to a combustion engine vehicle too and hope to stay electric.
