I’d put my 6 cylinder fossil fuel powered Goldwing up beside one of those toy electric motorcyles and the driver will eat my dust.
I can just see an electric powered Ford pickup pulling an 18000 pound Fifth Wheel up the Sierra Madre Mountains or the Rocky mountains. The driver would have his pickup bed full of freshly charged batteries to make it not to mention all the stopping to swap batteries out and holding up all those fossil powered motorhomes blowing their airhorns at him…LOL.
LETS NOT DISCUSS HOW IN THE 1970’s THE BIG WARNING FROM THE SCIENTISTS WAS A NEW ICE AGE COMING… You may be too young to remember or know about that. It is all Bout $$$$$$$ just follow the money trail. Roflmao
battery technology will get better and cheaper and a decentralized power grid will change everything. There are companies that are building batteries out of iron and saltwater than can store the power generated from windmills for cents/megawatt.
we might actually fight wars with electric tanks powered by solar panels and portable wind turbines positioned at the battlefield instead of gasoline that has to be shipped from the refinery to the battlefield. The southeast of the US was crippled by some hackers who hacked a pipeline’s billing server.
