The future is electric………….

[mtread]

The electricity is generated somewhere that creates emissions (burning fuel, build and decommission of the power station/wind turbine etc)The build and transportation of the car/bikeDisposal of the car/bikeAll of the above create emissions its just the greeny people like their car to not produce gas as it moves around the town centre and countryside.

How do wind turbine/solar/hydro cause emissions? Apart from building them in the first place and infrastructure? It's like saying walking causes emissions because of the need to make shoes.
As to build and disposal of the vehicle, well that's more or less the same whatever you drive or ride.
It's all about comparative emissions, and clearly the internal combustion engine creates much more.


For me, if they only make electric bikes in future, I'll hang on to my current ones as long as possible, but in the end I'll ride an electric bike.
