You have a logic iproblem. EVERYONE has done the calculations, on all sides of the "debate" and shown, by EVERYONE that the amount of material required DWARFS what the oil/gas guys use by an ORDER OF MAGNITUDE at minimum.....  I suggest you remove all the permitting processes for new mines and push for the opening of gargantuan new mines everywhere. When you do that, everyone will know you are actually being serious instead of lying wankers. Its called math, try it someday soon please. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are also probably not counting the energy to make the steel for the pipelines etc. Show me some math in particular that order of magnitude claim. Pretending you have done some math, which obviously you have not or you would have presented the data, is weak sauce. You make up numbers like eco.

You should see the charging points here in Vasteras. Literally 10. 😜 You cant even get that right! Come and charge your electric car in Vasteras - the town boasts 27 charging stations. Find out where these charging stations in Vasteras are located with the Chargemap map. Charging stations in Vasteras, Sverige for electric cars (chargemap.com) There you go you now have a map so you can find them, no need to thank me. Its not a big town 127,000 people so you should be fine. It would take you 5 seconds to actually research, lazy lazy lazy. Literally every post you do adds to your embarrassment.

Hertz’s Big Move Into EVs Turns Out To Be A Dud In November 2023, Hertz’s Q3 performance was lackluster, with adjusted EBITDA margin of 13% missing analyst expectations due to increased costs of its EV fleet. This includes higher collision/damage repairs and depreciation of EVs.  Hertz said that damage costs of EVs had run twice as high as that of ICE vehicles.   https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Hertzs-Big-Move-Into-EVs-Turns-Out-To-Be-A-Dud.html Edited January 11 by Eyes Wide Open Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lexington green + 22 LG January 11  'Our cover in the rest of the world examines the astonishing rise of the electric-car industry in China, which was probably the world’s biggest car exporter in 2023. An influx of cheap Chinese electric vehicles is coming to Western markets—if protectionist politicians do not stand in the way. In a leader we argue that Chinese cars should be welcomed, not feared, by the rest of the world. And in an accompanying Briefing we explain how expertise in batteries, and a vast domestic market, are giving Chinese firms an edge.'
