Why do people think green with cars?

It seems futile to abandon gasoline to be "green" with electric cars.

Do you charge up your electric car with electricity generated by coal burning power plants?

    Damn, I was about to ask this one. You beat me to it. Lol.

    Yeah, people who drive these so called green cars are just putting a burden on themselves for having to drive that piece of sh*t. It doesn't help the environment.

    Here's something that might make you laugh- I saw a Toyota Pries driving down the road with grass painted on the side... Funniest thing ever.

    Let it sink in and think about it how GREEN are GREEN cars? Made and produced in China. Forced labor in China to make the GREEN cars. Then the car is done now it is put on a cargo ship and shipped over seas to the U.S during the process the ocean gets very POLLUTED. Once arrived in the U.S it is unloaded at the port and now the port is POLLUTED. Now loaded onto trucks and driven across the U.S and now The Highways and Roads are POLLUTED. all for a simple little GREEN car that gets 2 to 3 more miles to gallon than an AMERICAN MADE Chevy of Ford. now that you let it sink in and thought about it how GREEN are GREEN cars?

    For starters being locked in a garage with a running petrol vehicle is a Death Sentence, but replace that with an EV and it is a pointless exercise as there are no emissions from an operating EV.

    Secondly it takes more electricity to make gasoline than to drive an EV as far as the gasoline could take you. http://electricmini.blogspot.com/2011/10/it-takes-...

    Third: We can make electricity with Geothermal, Solar PV, Solar thermal, Wind and ocean currents. Presently more than 10% of our electricity is made this way and electric vehicles account for less than 1/2 of 1% of the vehicles on the roads. We have more clean electricity than we do electric vehicles using it.

    If i can get a comfortable car that gets 40 to 55 mpg and doesn't cost as much as a condo in Florida.

    Or that european van that gets over 50 mpg.

    But the epa refuses to test it and let it into the country.

    It is just a "feel good" pretense for people with no sense. Of course, some day electricity will be better -- when it is generated by solar power, hydroelectric power, or wind power (my favorite). All of those just take the heat we already get form the Sun and re-use it. BUT, nuclear power is the absolute worst! No carbon dioxide, but HUGE amount of heat produced which started out as cold rocks (uranium). It gives us heat pollution and global warming, etc.)

    Here's what's wrong with this premise - it also takes electricity to make gasoline. About six kilowatt-hours worth of energy for every gallon refined.

    That's about the same amount of electricity, mile-for-mile, that electric cars use.

    *

    So if both gas cars and electric cars need similar amounts of electricity, which one is cleaner? It's not going to be the one that burns oil.

    you are right, and the collapse of nuclear power plants due to the last awful tsunamis in japan teach us

    that electricity is never so green.

    A green car is that pulled by a horse, then issue with the hs all over and the animal protection society, I guess green is a bicycle
