Doubts about EVs
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I'm not a denier in the sense that I accept that we are suffering from an increase in average temperature however the evidence that the cause is mostly man made is not in my limited knowledge on the subject very balanced.
Then again my view is irrelevant as out of all the Royals I like Harry & Anne best. ;D ;D ;D
My son in law runs a company Ford Mach E - he says he likes it - when my Jeep fails it's Mot I might go for a petrol Hybrid - the Jeep is 17 years old so might be beyond economic repair on a major Mot fail next year but it passed this month so good for 12 months.
royhall:
And also measurable increases in CO2 in the atmosphere, but that could be volcanoes that were around since time began. ;D
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Interesting documentary about volcanos recently on TV - part of it was about a lake that has a volcano underneath that released carbon dioxide causing over a thousand deaths not including livestock caused by a massive gas escape due to a tremmor.

Think of the air quality aspect in cities as well. Imagine the improvement of the quality of the air in central London if it were 100% EV

If it's anything like previous attempts to clean up our industrial pollution it might be just more displacement it might be at the expense of exporting the problem to third world countries. (Flixborough / Bopal different product but multi-nationals exporting pollution)
