Environmentalists generally object to battery-powered devices and for good reason: batteries require mined minerals, employ manufacturing processes that leak toxins into local ecosystems and leave behind an even-worse trail of side effects upon disposal. Though when it comes to the largest mass-produced battery-powered gadget ever created–the electric car–environmentalists cannot jump from their seats fast enough to applaud it. Ozzie Zehner
About This Quote

As an environmentalist, I understand that the use of fossil fuels is a major contributor to global warming and many other environmental problems. With that said, I also know that there is a green solution to our energy needs. The green solution is the electric car. This car requires no fuel and emits no pollution.

It is a more efficient way of transportation, which means more time can be spent on your work and less time using the cars. The pollution problem is handled with a regenerative braking system that can be reversed into a power source for the vehicle or into electricity from the power grid. This not only keeps the world from being polluted, it also helps people who don't have access to electricity.

To call this a "greener" way of transportation would be an understatement.
