There simply isnt enough green energy to power everyone having electric cars and there wont be for 40 years or more. Stupid motherfuckers simply dont understand electricity. I do only because I'm employed in the energy sector.

In 40 years, ev's will be a forgotten fad.

It will at least on the scale they want them today. Personally, I think a few EV's will be practical but they will never be "green".

All they have to do is supplement gasoline cars by adding hydrogen fuel and they can eliminate catalytic converters which DECREASE fuel mileage.

Catalytic converters will not be eliminated.

On March 25, Arkansas became the first state in the 2025 legislative session to take a strong stand against the tyranny of environmental, social, and governance systems. By passing Act 406 — originally introduced as Senate Bill 409 — the state protected its agricultural industry from politically driven discrimination and debanking by financial institutions.

State Rep. Randy Torres, the Republican who sponsored the bill, explained the law's key provisions during a House floor speech on March 20. "It does four things," he said. "It prevents discrimination against farmers; it limits environmental, social, and governance policies; it creates a public list of financial institutions that discriminate; and it allows farmers to report discrimination."

From California to the Iberian Peninsula, the green grid collapses under pressure. We must demand a bold return to nuclear, gas, and real energy security.

Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda just stirred up controversy in the EV world by claiming that electric vehicles could be more harmful to the environment than hybrids—especially in regions where electricity still comes from fossil fuels. He argues that producing and charging a single EV might emit more CO₂ than operating three hybrids, undermining the idea that EVs are universally the greenest option.

According to Toyota's internal data, their 27 million hybrid sales have cut emissions equivalent to 9 million BEVs. But if those BEVs were built and powered in countries like Japan—where thermal power dominates—the environmental cost would actually rise. Toyoda's stance challenges the global EV narrative and emphasizes the importance of grid decarbonization before going all-in on battery-powered cars.

Carney's EV mandate will destroy Ontario's auto sector and our economy.
