In the US , the contribution is 28%, with light-duty vehicles – cars, SUVs, and small trucks – responsible for 59% of transportation emissions and 17% of all US emissions. In the US, 36% of electricity is generated using renewables, including wind, solar, and hydropower, as well as non-CO2-emitting nuclear power.

Fortunately, abundant renewable power is getting cheaper, while gasoline from finite fossil fuels may get more expensive. If you drive an SUV in Southern California those miles cost over 30 cents each.). They had better think seriously about financing solar and wind arrays. At that price, California miles are 16 cents each.

One week earlier, former Vice President Al Gore issued his well-received challenge to make the American grid 100% renewable in ten years. Meanwhile, GM is hedging its bets by continuing to invest in the dream of cheap, cellulosic ethanol and the hallucinogenic pipe dream of hydrogen fuel cell SUVs.

Plug-In Hybrids Are Cleaner (Even on a Coal Grid) [ to top ] This entire section is finally obsolete -- because we now have a definitive study by the Electric Power Research Institute and the Natural Resources Defense Council. Only PHEVs and battery EVs get cleaner as they get older - because the electric grid gets cleaner every decade.

If our country is going to spend money like a drunk sailor we should have spent it on building renewable energy power plants like Wind and Geothermal. Denmark did that with Wind Power and now most of their energy comes from wind rather than oil, natural gas, or coal. We are facing a big problem with global warming.
