Like most things of the Left, they know what is best for everybody. Therefore, everybody will be green.

I’m always a little skeptical about these Paul Erlich style analyses though, they assume the technology doesn’t develop.
You can imagine it being 1845 and this guy saying “we’ll never have lighting for 1B homes. There just aren’t that many whales in all the seven seas!”

Exactly. People always try to predict the future assuming things will stay the same in science. Look at the increase in food production.

I've been testing batteries for 33 years (it's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it...), mostly associated with wireless technology rather than cars - the results we get now are significantly different from those I got in 1989, and development is not slowing down.
I still think there are much better solutions.

...somebody played this at our last battery committee. Still a favourite
