CO2

Whatever you make of the CO2 debate .. like whether rises in CO2 have been primarily caused by humans or not .. one thing most of us agree on is that increasing CO2 in our atmosphere will have devastating consequences for life on earth.

There’s also the argument that it’s crazy to burn the worlds remaining fossil fuels because they can provide plastics and medicines and other undiscovered values for hundreds of generations to come on our planet.

Whatever is playing out in the world of climate politics, most people have a belief in renewable energy generation and many people also believe the electric car will be an important element of a clean global future.

But is there a benefit to electric cars when the power to recharge them is generated by burning coal?
