Seriously, do you have anything intelligent to say?Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants

Tony, you and I disagree on things, but we are civil to each other. crocket jumps in threads just to call me names. The op is about facts, if you disagree with the facts or want to make comments, go ahead. But if I call you on it, then you shouldn't get your panties in a twist.
crocket is a moron that always takes the liberal side of the debate. And when he runs out of propaganda to use, he starts with the insults, pretty lame if you ask me.
I have a problem with hybrid and electric cars because of the huge carbon foot print they have because of the metals and chemicals they use in their batteries and having the government spending millions to loan them and millions more to promote them.Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff.

i really think you should start to worry about the carbon footprint of cars like the F150 - huge piece of metal with horrible mpg and not more space inside than a regular Jetta or Passat
still the most sold car in the US (for whatever reason)
seriously - before you start worrying about cars that in the foreseeable future will remain a small percentage of total cars sold, rather start convincing people to drive smaller (in total size/weight) cars with 3 or 4 cylinder gas or diesel engines that do 40 mpg or more
but since that doesnt fit your agenda, i dont have much hopeComment

I drive a F150. It gets ok gas mileage for a 4x4 with a V8. I don't drive it much anymore.

My agenda is common sense.
According to the Congressional Budget Office, federal policies to prop up and promote electric cars will cost taxpayers $7.5 billion through 2019.
It's not about the size of sales that I'm concerned about, it's the money that the government is spending on each car when the battery technology is flawed. They need to address that before pushing forward.
Last month, the ?father of the Prius,? Takeshi Uchiyamada declared that electric cars were simply ?not viable.? "Because of its shortcomings--driving range, cost and recharging time--the electric vehicle is not a viable replacement for most conventional cars," said Uchiyamada. "We need something entirely new."

Tesla Motors' Dirty Little Secret Is a Major Problem
http://www.fool.com/investing/genera...or-proble.aspx
Energy independence, a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, lower fuel costs: All of these promises are factors behind the rise in electric vehicles' popularity. Unfortunately, they're more fiction than fact. Here's why, and how it could affect companies like Tesla Motors .
Do you want cancer with that battery?
Recently, the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy undertook a study to look at the environmental impact of lithium-ion batteries for EVs. The study showed that batteries that use cathodes with nickel and cobalt, as well as solvent-based electrode processing, have the highest potential for environmental impacts, including resource depletion, global warming, ecological toxicity, and human health. The largest contributing processes include those associated with the production, processing, and use of cobalt and nickel metal compounds, which may cause adverse respiratory, pulmonary, and neurological effects in those exposed.
In other words, li-ion batteries that contain nickel and cobalt have a significant effect on health and the environment. More specifically, this includes Panasonic's automotive grade li-ion batteries, which contain lithium, nickel, cobalt , and aluminum, and a proprietary cathode geometry developed jointly by Panasonic and Tesla -- and are currently used in the Model S.

Dynamo, let's be clear. EVERYTHING has an impact on the environment. What I usually bitch about is people's disregard for the facts. Tesla promote itself as a very green car which it is, but of course things like its batteries and manufacture cause some pollution too.
What I wish people would do is support more companies that not only have a green policy, but push harder for change to the system. For example, tax subsidies should go to new green companies for research and development, not to big oil.Comment

But that's what you do, just like in this thread. You say peeps should pick up a science book, then go on to say laptop batteries are the same as the batteries in the Tesla. I posted a chart 2x showing the basic difference for you, which you disregarded.

Exactly right.
Why?
Personally I was never a big fan of electric but I am really getting there. IMO I think Telsa makes the best electric car. I tried the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf and neither compare to Telsa.
About 10k to 40k of Birds die from hitting Windmills every here, but this is nothing compared to other sources.
Lighted Communication Towers : 40 to 50 MILLION bird deaths each year.
Cars : 60 to 80 Million Bird deaths each year
Windows : 100 Million to 1 Billion per year
Power Lines : 130 Million to 174 Million
Domestic cats : Hundreds of Millions.
That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. There are too many cars in busy cities. Stop lights are used to KEEP TRAFFIC MOVING, not slow it down. Since the world love their cars, replacing them with greener cars is the best way to reduce pollution.

I don't think Hyrdogen is a good idea. As you like to say about batteries, there is a huge cost to the environment to make and refine Hydrogen. And, Hydogen requires very large spherical tanks in your car. And hydrogen doesn't just burn like gas when in an accident. It explodes with incredible force. And besides, Hydrogen requires a whole new delivery infrastructure so cars can "gas up". Why bother, when you can get "gas up" at home with an electric car?
This is called Electrolysis, and sure I thought about this too. In fact I did this when I was a little kid. With a couple of test tubes or jars, a plastic bucket, wires and DC current, I could separate the Oxygen and Hydrogen from water, then light the gas on fire for a fun POP of a mini explosion. Sound like the answer, right? Zap water and turn it into fuel. The problem is that it is not efficient enough. It takes alot of energy to separate the H and O from water, and alot of time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ElectrolysisComment

Vendy, it's you that has the issues. You are so blinded by any other ideas that do not sit perfectly with what you think you know. The basic issue is this : The world is a dirty place thanks to coal and big oil. Alternatives need to be discussed, found, explored and exploited. That's it, thats all. Stop shitting over other ideas just because you're an old fart too set in his ways. By your thinking, your computer would still be nothing but a terminal connected to a Univac.
It's a shame that you call people like Crockett a "Waste of time" when you are the one with the ass-backwards ideas.
But Vendy old pal.... don't you agree that it is better to have a car that does not spew out noxious gasses out of its ass just to get people from here to there? Don't you at least agree that a high tech car is better than a new car based on the century-old "technology" of a noisy, dirty, gasoline engine? This isn't the 1950's anymore...
But Vendy this is the entire point. Maybe battery technology isn't perfect, but R&D money and other loans are intended to help RESEARCH and DEVELOP new technologies to make things better.
As a consumer, the Chevy Volt is flawed because the range sucks (50 miles per charge). Tesla beat them silly with a 250 Mile range. Imagine a few years from now when a 500 Mile and 1000 mile battery range becomes reality. This can only be achieved by more research and development. The government's push and promotion on this is a great great idea.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Governm...as-Powered-Car
My problem with Hybrid cars is that they carry around a gas engine, transmission, gas tank, oil tank, oil pump, pistons etc etc and all the extra weight, placing unnecessary burden on the electric engine. Strip all that stuff out and you have a lighter car that can go further on a charge. The gas engine components in a way, make the reason for the electric side of the car moot, and vice-versa. The Prius is a pretty nice car, but seems flawed in my opinion.Comment

right now Tesla indeed buys regular laptop batteries from PanasonicThe forward-thinking company understands the challenge ahead and is on its way to doing just that, planning what CEO Elon Musk has dubbed a ?Giga Factory,? that would produce everything from the battery cells to fully finished packs. (Tesla currently uses about 7000 laptop-battery cells in each vehicle.) It has been buying commodity parts from Panasonic to make its packs and the recently announced deal between the two companies suggests that Panasonic could partner with Tesla to build such a facility.
or at least people argue about it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_RoadsterTesla Motors refers to the Roadster's battery pack as the Energy Storage System or ESS. The ESS contains 6,831 lithium ion cells arranged into 11 "sheets" connected in series; each sheet contains 9 "bricks" connected in series; each "brick" contains 69 cells connected in parallel (11S 9S 69P). The cells are of the 18650 form-factor commonly found in laptop batteries. Sources disagree on the exact type of Li-Ion cells?GreenCar says lithium cobalt oxide (LiCo),[109] while researchers at DTU/INESC Porto state lithium manganese oxide (LMO).[110] LiCo has higher reaction energy during thermal runaway than LMO.[111]
But:
Tesla has made clear its intentions to produce a much less expensive model in 2016-17 that will start at $35,000. As the company explained yesterday, if it hopes to deliver that car along with its pricier models, it will need to produce more lithium-ion batteries than are currently manufactured worldwide today.
and to put that into perspective
By upping its year-end target to 21,500 deliveries of the Model S sedan, planning to double the production rate by the end of next year, and setting up a new deal with battery supplier Panasonic that should allow it to build more than 100,000 vehicles within 4 years, Tesla is off to a good start. But the company has a long way to go before its numbers even begin to register on the global auto-sales scoreboard, which tallied nearly 82 million units last year.Comment

So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants

People use them as work vehicles; and there is a whole tot of empty space between LA and NYC, trucks come in handy for the people that live there.
I suspect boats rank pretty low on the reason trucks are purchased.Comment

Dynamo,But that's what you do, just like in this thread. You say peeps should pick up a science book, then go on to say laptop batteries are the same as the batteries in the Tesla. I posted a chart 2x showing the basic difference for you, which you disregarded.
That's why I like replying to your comments, btw, so don't you go changing!
I didn't answer you yet because I really don't know how to answer you. I'm not a chemistry major and I wanted to do some research before answering you.
You said in your post that the batteries are not the same, and you posted a chart:

If you look at the very bottom of the chart you posted it says "Table 1: Reference names for Li-ion (Lithium Ion) batteries. All of the batteries are Lithium Ion, and are used in cars & computers. The chemical composition may be different for different types of batteries but this is to be expected. I don't know which of the compounds in each of the batteries is more polluting than the other, but this is not the point. I am happy to say that All of them have pollution issues when it comes to the manufacturing process, especially if the plant that makes them dumps waste instead of process & recycle it properly.
Wow... now you're trolling. Without traffic lights, your city would be in 24/7 gridlock and save lives. Sure they're a nuisance when you've got to get from A to B, but really man... fuck.. now you're anti traffic-light?
Sigh... I guess you didn't read my post. Yes there's Hydrogen in water, but it is not the only source.
Allow me to school you on SCIENCE 101. Hydrogen powered cars convert Hydrogen into electriciy with something called a Fuel Cell. At first it seems like a GREAT idea because (Hey! It's electric!) and Hey Hey! It produces zero emissions except for WATER (Yes, Water comes out of the tail pipe in a Hydrogen powered car) and heat.
The Hydrogen fuel to power your car can come from water, and it can also come from Natural gas. A process called steam reformation can be used to separate the hydrogen in the gas from the carbon and is the most common way to get Hydrogen. If the point of using Hydrogen in cars is to save the earth, getting it from Natural gas is the worst possible way to do it because surprise - it ads CO2 and other crap to the atmosphere.
By the time Hydrogen is put into your tank the cost to you is almost the same as regular gas too, not including the cost of the carbon footprint.
Besides that, the cost is high. You need the cars to run on them, and you need the infrastructure to fuel them as I said earlier. The cars are very expensive - over $100,000 right now. Then there's the storage of Hydrogen. Did you know that Hydrogen expands when it gets warm? To make sure the thanks don't explode, Hydrogen powered cars have to vent some gas to reduce the pressure if the car is parked in the sun for too long. Leave your car out for a few days, and the tank will be empty.
So really, really? Tell me fucking why you think Hydrogen is a better solution than plug-in electric. Come fucking on...Comment

My god you are hopeless.Look everyone, like electric cars?
Well batteries suck
Here's a better idea by Honda called the FCX Clarity
http://www.carscoops.com/2014/01/hon...ogen-fuel.html
Fill it up at a station just like gas, no emissions other than water. Running an electric motor.
This is the kind of tech we should look at, we can never run out of Hydrogen.
I give up.

Why would I want to borrow a trailer when I have a truck?
I never said get rid of the stop lights, read again
So wait, you are telling me there is a bad way to produce it and a good way to produce it and you are telling me we are stuck with the bad way?Sigh... I guess you didn't read my post. Yes there's Hydrogen in water, but it is not the only source.

Come on, earlier you told me you could make it. Yes it has challenges, but so does everything else. If you used electricity to make hydrogen from clean energy, then stored it for use. Yes it expands, so does gasoline, you knew that didn't you?
They have working models of cars that are not tethered to electric plugs that don't need a battery that have a range of over 200 miles that are cleaner than anything else on the road and you think it's not worth the time to look at?
Wait, I bring up a car that has zero emission and somehow your twisted mind thinks I want to pollute the world, get a fucking grip!My god you are hopeless.
I give up.

Just because I think Obama is a shit for a president, don't think you know how I vote. I'm not republican. Under Obama the cost of gas has skyrocketed. But you want to blame the republicans for that? Pull your head out of your ass!
I see a bunch of holes in that, I watched an episode of top gear and they love the new tech. James Mays drove it, he really liked the idea.Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff.

His point is don't own a truck for the 20% of the time you actually do use it for the purposes it was designed for (read: "2 milk crates in the bed for grocery shopping" would not fall under "purposes it was designed for"), own a lower-emmission vehicle and rent a trailer (or similar apparatus) when you need it.
