Fialka Wall Street Journal March 26, 2007 AUSTIN, Texas -- Of all the plans cooked up by cities to combat pollution and global warming, the one hatched here is among the most ambitious -- and, some say, one of the more quixotic. Some utilities will buy extra power that their customers produce by home solar panels.

Then consider that in order to actually go any farther than the neighbood store, one still had to have ANOTHER car. So just use a portable electric generator in the trunk, from the hardware store to charge the batteries while you drive. run the hardware store and buy a new one.
