Although China and India remain the world’s largest consumers of coal, a new University of Maryland-led study found that China’s sulfur dioxide emissions fell by 75% since 2007, while India’s emissions increased by 50%. Sulfur dioxide is an air pollutant that causes acid rain, haze and many health-related problems. Click to enlarge.

While it’s obvious that the internal combustion engine vehicles are polluting the air outside the buses, what you may not know is that numerous studies show that the pollution from the burning diesel regularly makes its way into the buses. The more vehicles that switch to running on electricity, the better.

Up there, 10 to 50 kilometers above the Earth’s surface, ozone molecules absorb the sun’s ultraviolet light, protecting life far below. Even less is understood about the potential risks to people and the environment—could the particles deplete the ozone layer, for example, or significantly alter the weather?

Denver represents an interesting case study for exploring potential PHEV impacts because it violates the federal air quality standard for ozone and because several large EGUs [electricity generating units] are located in or near the urbanized area. Ozone concentration increases were modeled for small areas near central Denver.

I mean, when the electricity it uses is produces, pollution still happens, just not "right from your car"? That being said, even a car that derives its energy from coal power plants would be far more clean. excluding coal power in china.
