Electric cars are a con. So many people are completely oblivious to the slavery conditions of those involved in mining the cobalt/lithium required for the batteries, as you said Amy. All the marketing that's done for these things worldwide by the governments, and not once have I heard them address the slavery issues. Even looking at things environmentally, they really aren't that green once you include the whole mining procedures - the global logistics of moving all the cobalt/lithium from the source, etc. It's madness. Yet they're billed as being the saviour of the planet for cars? Where's all the energy going to come from to run them all if enough of the population adopts them? Wind and solar won't cut it! Back to fossil fuel plants? Isn't the whole thing about reducing the need for fossil fuels?? That only leaves nuclear as an option, which I don't think will happen, not in Ireland anyway.
Hydrogen seems much more promising I think. They're testing it on aircraft and trucks, why the heck not go full scale with cars?? Yet you don't hear as much about it as electric cars. I wonder why?? I think that Shell in California recently shutdown it's Hydrogen stations, though i could not find an answer as to why. Much like every other issue in the world, there are those meddling in it all from the shadows.....
Money money money. Remember, that's what it's ALWAYS about.
