EVS: How They Are Helping Us In developed countries like the US, transportation is the main cause of climate pollution. To address this issue people should change to more sustainable modes of transportation. It is the need of the hour because to mitigate the worst effects of climate change, we have just ten years in our hands.

I bring a passion that’s driven by my sense of urgency over our climate change crisis. All the more reason you should be going solar and produce your own clean, green energy instead of paying the electric company. But I also bring something more on top of all that.

Sorry, but electrics and electric power plants are so efficient that CO2 emissions are less than gassers even when the electricity comes from coal - and a lot of electricity doesnt come from coal. Well, the cheapest source is from steam reformed fossil fuels, and that process produces CO2, especially when that fossil fuel is coal.

It is only a matter of economics motivated by incentives or taxes. This helps to explain the climate changes we are now experiencing.

The high cost of manufacturing the Volt is exactly why the tax credits of $2500 for a vehicle with 4 kWh of battery capacity and $417 for every kWh over 4 (so that there is a $7500 credit for the Volt) were legislated.
