- Scarblac 4y agoWe need to drive way less to get rid of fossil fuels, electric cars still use a lot of energy (for mining the raw materials, manufacture and use) and are at most a drop in the bucket.
- theodric 4y agoEither driving uses a lot of fossil fuels, and therefore driving without using fossil fuels is better, or the switch from fossil fueled to electric cars is a drop in the bucket of the overall solution. Pick one. Don't bring your dislike of cars and use it to argue against both sides.
- einpoklum 4y agoPeople in the US are obsessed with private cars. Perhaps that's why you're worshiping the likes of Musk. Car use needs to be brought down massively, not have the fuel consumption converted to electricity consumption. All those cars are an enormous waste of resources. ... but actually, looking at the prices, it seems like Tesla cars are super-expensive, meaning that only rich people will buy them, meaning that they don't even "contribute to electrification", they just contribute to rich people's ego.
