EVs are a great idea, but
EVs are a great idea, but they are still somewhat embryonic in concept. The design and then the sourcing of the components for the current batteries is problematic, the charging of the batteries themselves due to the current state of our infrastructure is problematic, and the range, well that leaves so much to be desired for those of us who live in and not necessarily not work in wetland, mountainous, desert, wide plains, or any other non-urban area of the country as to be a little ridiculous. I know, there are going to be a lot of 'buts' from a lot of people in response to those statements and that's okay. There is a place for current EVs. I am stating that there is a long way to go both in infrastructure and materials sciences before legislation can be put into place to replace fossil fuel transport and, by the way, agricultural equipment, with electric vehicles. There is something to be said for doing something right the first time and with consideration of as many of the variables as we can to begin with in the first place to avoid waste and creating more problems for our planet, after all, we still haven't dealt with where the electricity is going to come from in the main to charge all of these lovely electric vehicles yet have we?
