United States Electricity Sources

Coal: 44.4%
Natural Gas: 23.7%

Both of these items are limited resources. And burning coal to create enough electricity to power that car is much worse than just powering it by gas in the first place.

Electric cars in the U.S. = FAIL.

Game Over.

By saying coal is much worse than gas I am talking about the emissions. I just wanted to mention that they are limited resources just like gasoline.

I am all for nuclear power seeing as how it is my means of employment. ;)
