So you drive that Tesla to save the planet huh

Sure.doogie said:You need to talk with Wilbur. The one charging we're somehow restraining technology advancement as it pertains to energy production

WE NEED MORE TRAINS

But WHERE is the R&D for battery powered trains???RaceBannon said:WE NEED MORE TRAINS

AGREE. Trains move shit around the country a lot more efficiently than semis or airplanes. They are second only to container ships in amount of fuel used to move a ton of freight.RaceBannon said:WE NEED MORE TRAINS

I have a friend who uses coal and he would NEVER hurt the environment.

The 8 year carbon debt is a black eye. The key assumption is that the factories producing the batteries get about half their electricity from fossil fuel. Still has the potential to be greener than than standard ICE if production process gets more efficient or generation fuel mix changes. Solar panels had a 20 year carbon debt when they first came out but now it is closer to 2 years because the process and panels themselves have gotten more efficient. But yeah fuck technological advancement.
Tesla is powering the battery plant with a 70 MW solar farm. The assumption is bullshit.
BTW, Tesla is up 53% since Doogie's call for their solvency. -

Fossil Fuels were absolutely necessary and probably still aren't completely past their time. But, we can/will/must advance to cleaner and more efficient forms, just like any other tech.

As a "luke warmer" who believes we need to be building more nuclear and phasing out the stuff out of our economy, I would argue that nothing else in human history did more to raise standards of living than coal.

How about the solar panels? They weren't made and delivered by unicorns riding on a rainbowUWhuskytskeet said:RedRocket said:The 8 year carbon debt is a black eye.

There's that scale issue again too -
Can't argue with you there boobs.TierbsHsotBoobs said:YellowSnow said:
