    You realize natural gas is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect, right? When people talk about going to green energy, only the fossil fuel industries pretend gas, or for that matter “clean coal,” is part of it.

    And sure, it contributes less per kilowatt but the current concerns are that we’re either already over the threshold or won’t convert in time.

      Cool, but that’s a whole separate conversation.

      An EV powered by 100% natural gas is still a lot better for the climate than an ICE vehicle.

      And note that natural gas is a decreasing amount of the energy mix.
