Are EV's As Clean As They Claim?
« on: June 13, 2025, 05:56:41 PM »
The head of Toyota says 3 Toyota hybrid vehicles will cause less pollution over their life time than 1 electric vehicle in many cases. How is this possible? Many areas rely on fossil fuels to produce electricity.

This was an emergency situation, but I remember seeing a popular video clip showing diesel generators on the back of a semi truck trailer parked in a parking lock with UPS electric powered delivery vehicles. UPS was using the diesel generators to charge the batteries in their delivery vehicles. From this situation, you can easily see the importance of fossil fuels even when all the vehicles are powered by electricity.

I've always said if government wants to use the legal system to mandate what car people can purchase, the best solution we have to lower fuel consumption and pollution are sub compact cars with small gas powered engines, and hybrid vehicles. Government should just leave people alone, because man made global warming is a complete hoax anyway.
