@Peaceful I remember reading about the environmental impact of mining the materials used for those batteries.

@SooperSarah exactly. Did you read the article, it's much worse than that. 馃槩
@Peaceful I did. Electric cars are a step in the right direction though. Things like battery life and means of producing electricity are slowly moving in the right direction.

@SooperSarah I respectfully disagree. But to be super fair, I'd be happier going back to horse and buggy. 馃槍
@Peaceful I once read a study that laid out all the math proving that driving your car to the store is better than walking. It was based on the environmental impact of growing and shipping the calories (food) you'd need to where you live.
The point wasn't that we should drive everywhere rather than walk. It was that studies can give just about any result if done a certain way.

@SooperSarah that's a fact. Especially when you dig into who the paid sponsors are.
Just took me 2 days with a few naps to travel 2300 kilometres..at 110km/h..
