Electric cars a bad idea?

[Marlin]

IMO, electric is just a trade off. So we use less fuel, but imagine how much nuke power (more nuclear waste) we would need if even 50% of the current autos on the road were electric powered?

Solar and wind and geothermal would need to be full swing. We need to get away from fossil fuels, yes, but we also need to realize what the trade off is. Until we can produce on a large enough scale, TRUE, clean, renewable energy, I think gas will be here for a while.

Nuclear is pretty clean. The waste is all self contained for the most part and not pumped into the atmosphere like fossil fuels. Downfall is that it takes a long time to become safe. But there is this one place we can store it....I think its called Nevada, or something like that.

Amen, brother. STOP BREEDING PEOPLE!

PS - Storing nuclear waste in any form is just an accident waiting to happen. "Clean" isn't really the word I would use for nuclear...and yeah, I don't want that chit in my state in any quantity.
