Appendix B: Car of the Future: A Comparison of Alternative Vehicles. The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. More information on e-mile comparisons is given by Reference Nº 2. Conclusions. slow charge.
