This could make it more attractive to make olefins from alternative sources of carbon, such as biomass, natural gas, or coal. Increasing demand and decreasing oil reserves are causing scientists to turn their attention to coal, natural gas, shale gas, and biomass as sources of raw material.

Would these vehicles truly help to lower carbon emissions. They rely on a battery charged from a standard 120 volt or 240 volt outlet and do not produce carbon emissions while running but require frequent charging. In 2008, transportation accounted for 22 percent of all city carbon emissions. Should the city encourage their use?
