Subject | Don't kill the electric car again! |
Comment | I was outraged by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) decision to eliminate battery electric vehicle technology in 2004. Is is irresponsible that CARB staff have recommended to the Board that hydrogen technology, again, be treated with more credits and funding for automakers than battery electric vehicle technology. What this has lead to in the past is investment in hydrogen technology, which is less efficient, mostly is derived from fossil fuel s and, by its proponents, is labeled as "far off" in even small-scale implementation. We need a solution NOW. Battery electric cars have been on the road and continue to serve thousands of drivers daily. We need to give automakers an incentive and push to invest in this PROVEN technology - and YOU must do this NOW. |
