More specifically, he suggests that other than supporting fundamental R&D, programs to promote alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) “ are not currently warranted for climate protection. The challenge is illustrated for electric cars, which are roughly three times as fuel efficient as conventional, non-hybrid gasoline cars.
