It depends on where the electricity and the gasoline come from, clearly. If the electricity comes from burning coal, not so great, if it comes from wind turbines, great! You can even use the car batteries as storage. And if the gasoline is made from biological materials (3rd generation or above, which means that food production doesn't suffer for it) - great! If it's made from oil, however.. never mind global warming, we'll run out of cheap oil soon enough. All these things are being considered, and the most economic solution will win, I hope. How is this not a rational conclusion base on real evidence?
