They're bad faith, loaded questions. Be honest, you didn't ask them to learn something, you asked them because you think they're "Gotcha!" questions.
Your responses to answers make this painfully obvious.
If you want to make a point, then just make it. Don't hide behind a bullshit claim that you're just asking questions and then cry about downvotes.
- tonymet 3y agoMy point is no one accounts for the cost and environmental impact . They are fair questions .
- Sohcahtoa82 3y agoThey're not fair questions because they've been answered. Multiple times. Every time electrification comes up. Cost and environmental impact has been accounted for. And it turns out, using solar/wind energy for production and storing the excess in batteries for when the sun goes down or the wind gets lighter is better for the environment than constantly burning natural gas and coal. Yes, building batteries has a carbon footprint, but that footprint only needs to be done ONCE, whereas burning fuel for electrical generation requires constant burning. For some reason, this fact upsets you, and rather than accept it, you try to act like nobody has done the studies. I don't know how else to explain this to you. The studies have been done. This is settled science. So again. Your questions are bad faith. You have no interest in learning.
- tonymet 3y agoEvery solution has tradeoffs . What is so wrong about discussing them. We discuss the tradeoffs of everything else. Then electric comes up and that’s off limits
