[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 334088, member: 735"] [USER=2468]@BuzzStone[/USER] Electric cars wouldn't be viable without huge government subsidies. Even if they were, where do you think the power comes from to charge their batteries? A power outlet at an owners home, on a local grid, most likely powered by coal / nuke. Solar isn't a viable form of mass energy production and doesn't appear likely to be in even my kids lifetimes. It is also very carbon heavy requiring lots of energy to produce the solar panels which also involve the use of toxins and rare earth minerals in their manufacture. Solar also not viable, too inefficient, and local communities don't tend to want wind farms near them. Geothermal can't meet demands. None of these so called clean forms of energy are viable sources of power generation today and this doesn't appear likely to change barring some technological breakthroughs. [/QUOTE]
