Re: Electric Cars and the Environment?

How about wind-up cars? Or even better, like the kind of toy you pull back a few inches and they go for several feet! Scale it up, and you push your car back a few feet and it goes for several miles!

Or there's always....

Re: Electric Cars and the Environment?

Besides, it takes more energy to make hydrogen than what you can get out of it. Dead end in my opinion.
