I intend to get an electric when my current car finally dies. I intend to run it into the ground as i figure using the already created resource until it stops working is better than creating demand for a another vehical. Ha! that and i dont have such a lump sum available.
I do intend to go electric. Theres a charging point in my town.
I have read thst although we reduce the emmissions at point if use, they still exist as only a small part of our electrity is renewable. (I use a 100% renewable supplier, Good Energy.)
The batteries used are a hazard and this has a different environmental impact to consider. (Did you read about the large lithiam deposits in AFganistan? Fancy thst eh!)
I'm still looking fwd to getting an electric vehical. Probably a leaf, obviously I dream to have a Tesla. Ha:)
